Malone J-Pro 2 Kayak Carrier

Product Description: The oversized padding helps protect the boat once strapped down. The Malone universal JAWZ mounting hardware fits round, square, and factory oval cross rails.

Malone's broad line of kayak carriers provides a solution for specific transport needs regardless of what type of boats you're transporting, how often you travel to the water, or how long it takes you to get there. The company invented the JAWZ universal fit mounting system, allowing its carriers to fit on virtually any factory-installed or aftermarket crossbar system.

E-coated, corrosion-resistant steel construction holds up to years of abuse, while oversized padding helps protect the boat once strapped down. Universal JAWZ mounting hardware fits round, square, and factory oval cross rails.

The set includes bow and stern safety tie-downs, two 12-foot cam buckle straps, and both 60mm and 70mm pre-coated mounting bolts, and is easy to assemble or transfer to another vehicle in minutes with no tools required.

Lifetime Warranty: Malone kayak and canoe carriers include a limited lifetime manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

FAQs:

- How quickly can these be removed? I would prefer not to spend $143 for the racks that fold down. I also don't want to remove them each time.

AS fast as it takes to remove 2 wing nuts! I was the same way I did not want to spend the big money for folding units, so I purchased these. They work great, High quality and easy to use.

- Does this product handle two kayaks, or do I have to purchase a second set?

You have to purchase two sets. Don't use the ropes or buckle straps that come with the set. It is better to buy a set of ratchet straps for each kayak. Have fun!

- Will these mount to a Thule Aeroblade (crossbar)? The blade is aerodynamic and narrow.

Yes, they will. I have the same bars and they fit great.

- Will this fit on a Ford Escape 2013 factory rack?

These racks have a universal mount. They definitely fit on an Escape. We transfer racks to our friend's Escape for our downstream vehicle.
