Saddle Style Kayak Carrier That Fits 1-3/4" Diameter Round Bars

Question

Question:

I have a jeep JKU with Garvin Adventure Roof Rack. This has tubes that are about 1-3/4inch diameter. I am trying to find a set of kayak saddles. You have a number of promising models but none of the writeups or installation manuals state how large of a *round* tube they can clamp on to. Do you have any advice?

I spoke to my contact at Rhino-Rack and they informed me that the Rhino-Rack Nautic Roof Kayak Carrier part # RR570 will fit the 1-3/4" diameter round crossbars on your Jeep if you use the Heavy-Duty Crossbar Adapter Kit for Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carriers and Fairings part # HD-FK1.

The above kit comes with tie down straps but I also recommend using the Rhino-Rack Anchor Strap part # RRRBAS-2 to further secure the bow/stern of the kayak to the vehicle.

I have attached a review video of the carrier for you as well.

Looks like you did a stellar job with the rack, and since the crossbars are 1 inch square, you will need an adapter for the Rhino-Rack ski carrier. So what you will need are the following: - Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 6 Pairs of…

I was able to verify with Inno that you will need a roof rack to use the Inno Ski and Snowboard Roof Rack #INTX726 on your 2013 Ford Flex with the bare roof. They do not have a way to install the rack the way you see in the image you found. The Inno…
