Roof Kayak Carrier Recommendation for 2017 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab with Factory Roof Rack
Question:
You suggested to me to use the Thule Hulla Port carrier for my 2017 Toyota Tacoma double cab with a factory roof rack with swing out rails. But, would the Yakima Jaylow be a better option because of the low clearance between the roof and rails since it only just snaps on?

Expert Reply:
For your 2017 Toyota Tacoma double cab that has the factory roof rack the Thule HullaPort part # TH834 would be a great option that is a confirmed fit. This padded rack will protect the kayak and also can fold down when not in use so it's a great option in that regard as well.
