Qustion about kayak stacker on 1999 chevy suburban roof rack

[cookedgoose]

I just purchased 3 Kayaks for my family, I think that some kind of kayak stacker system would work on my 1999 Chevrolet Suburban roof rack cross bars, but I also think i need some mighty mount adapters??? Also anyone know if I will need more straps? if so how many. I think I would also purchase the crossbar pads to prevent the rubbing on my Chevy Suburban roof top if folks think that is necessary.

Yakima Racks doesn't sanction the Yakima Kayak Stacker as being compatible with the 1999 Chevy Suburban roof rack crossbars. However, Thule Racks has the Thule 830 Kayak Stacker that is recommended for use on your crossbars. And you don't need any extra adapters or anything. The 830 Kayak Stacker connects right to the crossbars. It does come with a pair of straps which will strap down the two kayaks on one side. But you will need to get another pair of Thule Straps to strap down the 3rd kayak on the other side (you can also add another kayak on that side if you ever want to carry four kayaks). The cross bar pads are not necessary but they do offer even more stability and help to keep the kayaks stationary in place. They also protect the sides of the kayaks.
