I recommend using the Yakima Kayak Trailer for 5 Kayaks # Y24TR to transport your kayaks with your 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. The trailer will give you the ability to easily load and unload the kayaks from a manageable height. You will be able to carry up to 5 kayaks for a total weight of 250lbs(each kayak must not exceed 80lbs) or you can add the Heavy Duty Shocks # Y08110 to increase capacity to 350lbs.

The Kickstand for Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer # Y08115 will keep the front of the trailer up off the ground and make it easier loading and unloading the kayaks if you disconnect from your Jeep.
