Thule Roof Rack on a 2016 Ram 2500 Crew Cab for Transporting a Canoe

Question:

Hi there- I have a 2016 Ram 2500 Crew Cab. I already have two Thule roof rack bars installed on my topper. While this is great for kayaks and shorter boats, canoes can be an issue due to length. I would like to get a single Thule bar installed over the cab an utilize one of the bars on the topper for canoes. Can you recommend any Thule parts that would help me with this and is it possible to just get a two pack of feet instead of a set of four. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have a great roof rack system that will provide you with exactly what you are needing for the roof of your 2016 Ram 2500 Crew Cab. It is the 2016 Ram 2500 Roof Rack by Thule. They all come in 4-packs. There are no options for a 2-pack. The Roof Rack Includes:

Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 60" Long - Qty 2 item # TH711520.

Evo Clamp Feet for Thule Crossbars - Naked Roofs - Qty 4 item # TH710501

Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp Roof Rack Feet - 5106 item # TH145106

These premium, aerodynamic crossbars attach to Thule feet to create a quiet, stylish roof rack for your vehicle. Dual rubber strips in T-slots let you easily mount accessories. These crossbars have a weight capacity of 220 lbs and are 60" long x 3-1/8" wide x 1" tall. I have linked an installation video.

I recommend adding the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Qty 2 item # TH450200 to secure your roof rack from theft.

For hauling your canoe with the Thule system you will want the Thule Portage Canoe Carrier w/ Tie-Downs - Gunwale Brackets - Side Loading item # TH819.
