Available options vary with vehicle and rack model configuration.
The wide set feet on 10 foot and longer step ladders and certain other ladder types are simply too wide for both legs to be correctly supported on the rack.
This means that one leg of the ladder will be hanging off the side and is likely resting on the driveshaft or slide handle.
Carrying a ladder in this manner will, over time, damage both the ladder and the ladder rack, shortening the lifespan of both products.
Optional Features: Double High
Accessories: Conduit Carrier
