Kayak Carrier for Thule TracRac SR on 2016 Ford F-350  

Updated 05/30/2026 | Published 05/29/2026

Question:

I bought the thule track rack with the cantilever from yall a year or 2 ago for a 2016 f350. Now I looking for kayak carrying options. I would like tobuse the t bolt part if possible. I see the Malone offers a an adapter to use the track slots. Would the combination of those adapters with this rack option work for the thule track rack? If not, are there other recommendations. Appaently the crossbar on the track rack are different than most racks and I am havinga hard time finding options. If there is better options I am all for it, but not sure what those are. Anyway, thanks for your help in advance. Robert.

Hey Robert, welcome back! The Malone Truck Rack T-Slot Fit Kit # MPG8287 will allow you to mount certain Malone kayak carriers directly in the T-slots on your TracRac SR. If you prefer a J-style carrier, this fit kit works with both the Malone DownLoader # MPG114MD and Malone J-Pro2 # MPG117MD.

If you have a heavier kayak you need to carry with the hull down, like a fishing kayak, the Malone SaddleUp Pro # MPG110MD is another great option. This will require the Truck Rack T-Slot Fit Kit # MPG1498.

What kind of kayak will you be carrying?

I would like a double kayak option if possible. Would one of the vertical bars work? I want to be able to carry 4 kayaks on the rack.

@RobertF then I would just go with the Thule Stacker # TH830 along with the Thule Xadapt3 # THXADAPT3. It's going to clamp on using those longer bolts, but I think that is the best option here to carry 4.
