Yes!! You get two complete sets of everything you need to mount 2 kayaks. These J racks mount to the Cross Bars on your Roof rack (the ones that go across your car from left to right NOT front to back). You get 2 sets (4) of the tie down Straps (these strap the kayak to the J racks), and 2 sets (4) of the tie down ropes w/steel hooks and 8 Rubber scratch guards (these tie the front and back of your Kayak to the front and back anchor points of your vehicle. The scratch guards slide up and down the ropes and you place them where the ropes would rub on the painted surfaces). These are excellent Quality and you cant beat this price for all that you get!

You need to measure the width between your roof rack rails where attachment of this carrier can be mounted. Then add up your kayaks width to make sure you have sufficient room. The seawing is pretty wide. I got one on my rack (mounted in the middle) then needed two side mount carriers to get the other two kayaks up on top. Total weight of all kayaks was a concern. Make sure you check with the manufacturer to make sure you don't exceed the roof rack capacity. Like the SeaWing though, Real simple to install and use. A bit of movement (flex in the wing) while driving takes some getting use to. Malone was real nice to deal with.

Ours is holding 2x 12' kayaks with no problem, so at least &gt;150-200 lbs.

One set per kayak. My Honda accord will only accommodate one kayak, but if your boats were narrow and roof was wide...maybe.

Yes. I have two sets of the racks to carry both kayaks. Simple installation, and they work very well with my 2014 outback

Yes. Agree with the 2 other answers I see. You should not have an issue carrying two kayaks.

Yes, we use it to carry our two kayaks. One kayak has to tip on its side a little to fit in the bed of the truck but the part of the kayaks that rest on the carrier is more narrow so it works perfectly. One of our Kayaks is 14' and the other is 12', they are pretty wide (not the narrow sea kayaks) but fit well on this carrier.

Well, you sure can attach this rack to your truck. As far as hauling 4 kayaks, I'm not sure because of how much room is needed for these. In my opinion you shouldn't have any problem hauling them.

It has 2 you will have to purchase another set to be able to hold 2 kayaks total.

You get two of these in each box. You will need to order two sets. If you are hauling two kayaks or two boards. Be aware that the profile of the clamps on these "J-bar Racks" are for a crossbar that is more round or square in shape versus flat and oval as are my crossbars on my Rav4. They would clamp real well on a crossbar that was 1-1-1/2 inch round or square.

I don't know why you would want to do this. If whatever you are lifting is equally balanced on both ends, it should work. Might consider installing something on the kayak to hook the lifting bands farther toward the ends of the kayak so that most of the weight of the kayak is between the two lifting bands.

There were 4 included in the kit I received. Enough for 1 Kayak. One tip, if you intend to leave them attached to your rack, periodically apply some lube to the thumbscrew threads or they will rust.

You can lean a kayak or board on either side of the rack, allowing for two kayaks, one on either side. The rack is only there to stabilize the kayaks, not hold them down, so yes, you will need tie downs-probably one set for each kayak. When I purchased the rack, it came with one set of tie downs.

Are you saying this rack can't hold more than 60 lbs.? Because that would eliminate its usefulness to many if not most kayakers like myself.

I cant answer, i use one j hook per kayak. The straps are very long so the kayak model should not be an issue. I do not use the long straps. Gravity and the angle of the bend in the hook keep my tarpon 120 in place. Both my kayaks are 12 feet long and weigh 60-80 lbs depending on cargo. I am short 5'7 and i can lift them off the hooks easily.

I have a Honda CRV that I use one set of kayak roof racks and theere is plenty of room for a second set of racks. A friend has the same CRV and puts two kayaks on her roof with these same racks.

Honestly, I haven't used mine yet. But I would say that if the 2 kayaks can fit in the width of the bed you should be fine. It should be strong enough as the weight will be mostly distributed over the truck bed anyway. The trickiest thing will be to secure the kayaks in such a way that they don't bounce around or rub against each other. Maybe a sheet of soft foam like stuff used for cushions or mattresses in between the two? Good luck, hope this helps. this will be cheaper than a Thule carrier, for sure.
