Ideas for Making Loading Kayaks Easer on 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe
Question:
I own a 2007 santa fe with factory roof rails. I am looking for something to help me load my kayak onto my hull-a-port carriers by myself. Any suggestions?

Expert Reply:
Realistically the best product we can offer would be to go with a different kayak carrier that has more of a load assist like the Inno # INA453 or to use a tire step like part # HE4040 so that you can get up higher to load and unload easier.
Or you can install a 2 inch hitch like the part # 75471 on your 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe and then use an upright assist like the Rhino-Rack T-Load # RTL002 which installs in the hitch and can til back to help set on the bars.
