    • Overall, just an ingenius product
I don't have a luggage rack on my Durango R/T so my choices for canoe racks are very limited. My other problem was lack of equipment storage with 6 passengers. I looked everywhere for a 'canoe trailer' or 'kayak trailer', but they were very expensive and had limited space for equipment storage. I stumbled onto the Malone Top Tier system by accident. Like another reviewer stated, it is not well advertised. I decided to make the leap and buy a little 4' x 8' utility trailer from a local supplier and ordered the Top Tier online. To my astonishment, it arrived in 2 days. Instructions were clear and concise and included photos (instead of today's ridiculous renderings which never help). I measured everything up and installed the support posts as close to the front and rear as possible in order to maximize the 'span' between the mounting rails. It didn't take too long, especially because I decided to buy a carbide bit to drill the holes in the trailer (highly recommended). I tested the setup before the trip and found 2 minor design flaws that were easily correctible with a little ingenuity: 1. The width of the rails are barely long enough for 2 canoes, even with my maximum span of 7.5'. Any less than that and the canoes would not have fit due to the width of the center cross-section where they came in contact with each other. Plus there are no hooks on the rails so the canoes tended to slide off the end, due to the proximity - about 1.25" from the end - even after hitting minor bumps in the road. I purchased four 1/4" x 2" eyehooks, drilled holes about 3/4" from the end of the rails and inserted them. Not only did it keep the canoes from sliding off, it also offered an additional option for strapping them down. 2. The 'clamps' that attach the top rails to the support posts will slip if using ratchet straps to secure the cargo. In this case, when I tightened down the canoes during the test run, the clamps slipped somewhat and allowed the straps to eventually loosen. Not good. Solution: Drill horizontally through the clamp and rail, run a 3/16" x 2" bolt and attach with a nylon stop nut. This will keep the clamps from sliding and the ratchet straps from loosening. Problem solved. The rack performed flawlessly on a trip to northern Ontario, Canada. 600 miles each way, plus an 18-mile expedition on a very rough logging road. Did not experience one problem with the rack. This rack enabled me to carry 3 canoes (with some modification to the tailgate) and over 300 pounds of gear in a little trailer. The rig was the envy of countless onlookers at rest areas, gas stations and the border crossing. Several Canadians (who are well known for their watercraft and cargo hauling) marveled at the idea. I can haul a 4-wheeler or Waverunner plus various cargo and equipment (under the rails) while carrying canoes, kayaks or paddleboards. All while enjoying plenty of elbow room inside the cab of my SUV. If Malone makes these minor modifications, they will sell thousands of these. I have actually agreed to build 3 more of these rigs for friends and family members. One more tip, buy an 18" hitch extender to provide more space between the vehicle and trailer. This will limit the canoe or kayak hangover on the rear and will draw less attention from law enforcement. Not necessary with kayaks less than 12'. ... show more

    • Sturdy rack for canoes, kayaks
This is the best option for building a boat rack on top of your utility trailer. It's sturdy, affordable & looks like it was made to fit. Drove over 3000 miles with a canoe on top without issues. Just tighten the straps occasionally & use something on the bars to cushion the boat on top, like styrofoam pool noodles or pipe insulation. Holes had to be drilled into the trailer frame, but it looks great and works great. ... show more

I bought this for carrying our kayaks and other gear on cross-country trips, and it has been amazing! This rack is designed for utility trailers no wider than 5', but with some minor modifications, I have used this on our 6'x10' tube steel utility trailer with zero issues. First, I used all-stainless hardware. I started by replacing all the angle bolts with stainless U-bolts. In addition, I drilled a hole in the bottom of the vertical support and added a stainless bolt. Finally, I added stainless eye bolts at both ends of the cross-members to allow a tighter, non-slip connection for the ratchet straps used to hold my kayaks in place. I have transported a serious amount of outdoor gear over thousands of miles with this trailer rack, and this has worked flawlessly. Definitely worth the investment. ... show more

    • Filthy and Disgusting!
Parts smell like they were seriously washed in sewer water. Foul, and disgusting! I don't know where this was packed, but whatever third world location it was... the place must be filthy. I would be embarrassed to sell such vomit inducing products, let alone manufacture them! States "Made in the USA" ? Website also states: located just outside Portland, Maine. Well, all I can say is I have had products made in foreign lands that were better packaged and more sanitary than this. Horrific and plain gross. These people disgust me to no end. Further, the directions are a tragedy of poor photo-copies and not very well written anyway. Possibly written by children? But I am unsure. Materials are sub standard as well. I cannot believe that the item is receiving such good reviews! I had to replace most hardware with trips to the hardware store for broken items and ill-fitting "universal" parts. If I wanted to build a rack by hand... I would have done so, and done a better job. I should have returned it immediately instead of even trying. I regret that choice. DONT regret that choice yourself, and look for a better solution. This is NOT it! ... show more

    • Very good quality. Functional. Nice design.
I've used this for about a year now. I carry a 140lb, $5,000 sailboat and the racks remain fairly stout with that sort of load. I am confident in keeping my valuable items there while going down the road. There is little side to side rocking while driving on the road. It is securely mounted to the trailer and doesn't move around. Installation was straight forward but did require some drilling in my utility trailer, but that is expected. If I were to move the racks to shorten the distance between the two, I would have to drill additional holes. Not that big of a deal but I mention this so you don't think it's an easy adjustment to any position. Also, there is no vertical heiht adjustment possible - its a fixed height. Of course you could always saw off the legs to make it permanently shorter. I haven't had the need to remove the racks yet but it would be easy to do, but maybe a bit time consuming. That is expected given everything is bolted on and there are no quick releases. The materials are all high quality metal. No rusting or noticeable wear despite being in the sun and rain for the past 8 months. I would purchase this again without hesitation. ... show more
