Kayak transport with a Micro Lite

Hi! So my previous campers have had the usual more "wedge" like front. This allowed me to transport my kayaks in the bed of the truck with the tailgate up. But with Mico lites having more of the "forward bubble" over the hitch, does anyone have experience if you can still haul a 10 foot kayak in the bed without it hitting the camper when turning?

Kayak rack

I own two 12’ kayaks and had the same problem. I bought a rack on Discount Ramps.
It fits in four holes in pickup bed and extends over the cab. It will hold 1000 lbs and is around $200 delivered

Cruiser, can you post a link for those. I’m assuming you’re talking about the bed stakes. I’m looking for the same solution.
TIA

X2 on the bed racks. We use one for our 14 ft lake canoe. Lots of choices:

I have a Rola rack on my Tundra that has a very short bed. I carry a 12' Jackson kayak and a 9.5' kayak on my Tundra with a Mini Lite with that same bubble front cap.
