Can 86 inch Crossbars be Added to Malone MegaSport Trailer

Question

Question:

I have the Malone MegaSport base trailer which comes with 2 86 inch load bars. However, I would like to get to install 2 extra 86 inch load bars so I have 4 altogether. Do you sell the 86 inch load bars and mounting arms separately?

The 86" crossbars on your Malone MegaSport Kayak Trailer # MPG535 aren't available as replacements, but we do have the Crossbar Conversion Kit # MPG475 which comes with 78" crossbars that sit 13-3/4" tall if that works for your application.

Keep in mind that this kit is for a standard utility trailer so you will need to figure out how to get the crossbars to fit the trailer.
