How are you mounting your kayaks?

Something so classic about a Landcruiser with a kayak!

 

Cool right? I got several compliments that day.

 

I'd also be interested in reading on how you made that. Been thinking of something similar for my bed rack and asked it about it on here a few years ago but crickets

 

Nice truck, Is that the factory painting.
Looks glossy, NEW perhaps ?

 

Thanks! It's factory Inferno color. 2018.

 

Let me guess, Raspberry Red ?

 

Inferno is official color. It's discontinued now though.

 

Oh and I can't forget my Jetta Kayak setup. Much better MPG

 

What is going on with that exhaust setup???

 

It's diesel and sounds like a tractor. The tractor flapper just adds the cherry on the cake!

 

yeah, but............if it pointed down it would paint black stripes on the ground instead of the hatch......and you could always find your way back from anywhere by backtracking the stripes on the ground.

 

The tractor flapper makes it, I’m a big fan of tdi’s too.

 

The flapper is just perfect

 

Nice set up. Been looking for similar. Do ur racks go higher, You need to also pick up the special rack/rail instl kit to make it all work together?

 

They do not go up. Yakima makes ones that do raise but I wanted them to sit below the cab. And it’s just Yakima uprights and rails and thr Thule kayak holders just clamped on but I needed to get longer bolts.

 

2" Harbor Freight bumper hitch on the bed rail. A 1-7/8 ball in the bed floor and a bed extender modded to slip in, ending on that ball. Looking to add permanent tie down point on the hood, thinking it out but using loops under the hood for now.

 

I have Bote inflatables. They fold into a suitcase and fit under my tonneau or strapped to the Prinsu on top.

 

T bone bed extender, nrs straps and a red flag. That boondock bed expander is dope, highly recommended over older style "goal post" extenders would get hung up maneuvering around some launches
