FoldAway-Jâ„¢ Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs – J-Style
The FoldAway-Jâ„¢ is exclusively designed to safely carry a single recreational or touring kayak on its side. These carriers feature quick-release fold-down frames for low clearance and improved gas mileage when not in use. Built with corrosion-resistant coated steel, oversized padding, heavy-duty molded parts, and a unique mounting design.
This universal mounting system fits a large cross-section of aftermarket load bars (round, square and oval) as well as most factory systems. The dual mount locations ensure the carriers are firmly in place and eliminate side-to-side movement. Also includes two lengths of mounting bolts to achieve the best rack installation. Comes with cam-style load straps and safety tie-downs.

Malone FoldAway-J Installation
- Always refer to Malone’s Fit Guide for proper, correct, and approved vehicle fit.
- Bow and stern safety tie-downs are required for all Malone rooftop transport(s). Failure to correctly install and use safety tie-down lines voids all warranty and liability.
- Carefully review instructions and register your warranty prior to first-time use.
- Malone carriers come with two lengths of mounting bolts in order to achieve the best cross bar fit. Retain unused bolts for future use with different crossbars.
- The carrier base has a rectangular “cutout” for square cross bar fit. The “cutout” will not affect the fit or function when installed to round or oval crossbars.
