Quickest Roof Rack Install On A 2021 Chevrolet Silverado For Transporting Kayaks
Question:
I am looking for temporary roof racks for my 2021 Silverado. I only want them on when Im hauling my kayaks. Im leasing the vehicle, so no drilling. Is there something for me?

You can use the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA150B-2 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA and Custom DK Fit Kit # DK427 if you wanted to put a kayak rack # e98878 on top. This will only fit the 2021 Chevy SIlverado you're renting. If you got the Yakima BedRock HD Bar # Y01160-59 and # Y01149 you could swap that to any other truck you may rent, own in the future. It is MUCH easier to load up your kayaks and to remove the rack when done. You'll be much less likely to bump your kayak into the truck when loading in the rear apposed to having to climb up to get the kayak on the roof of the truck, in my experience.
