• Best Way To Carry Two Kayaks on a 2015 Jeep Cherokee with Raised Side Rails
  The Rhino-Rack 2 Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs part # S512-S512X is one of my favorite kayak carriers on the market. The reason for this as you mentioned is that it will save a ton of space on the roof. This saved space could then be used for other accessories such as a bike rack like the Rhino-Rack Hybrid Roof Bike Rack part # RRRBC050. The kayak carrier also has a folding upright so you don't need to remove it each time if you had any overhead clearance issues like a garage. It comes with...

  I am happy to help you in determining which Rola roof cargo basket is best for your lifestyle and your 2007 Toyota 4Runner!

• Recommended Roof Rack and Carrier for Kayak and Paddleboard on 2018 Subaru Crosstrek
  I took a look at the owner's manual of your 2018 Subaru Crosstrek and it stated that your roof's weight capacity was 150 lbs, so as long as the combined weight of the rack, carriers, your kayak and paddleboard are less than that you will be able to transport them.

• Can the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Fit Directly to Raised Side Rails on a 2009 Subaru Forester
  We do have a solution for you to use the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack directly on the raised side rails of your 2009 Subaru Forester but the part # JA8215 actually fits a 2003 - 2009 Lexus GX 470 so it isn't compatible with your vehicle. Instead you will want to go with part # RR44100B and the SX Series Legs # RRSX100. This will mount directly to the side rails on your Forester.

A product like the Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket # RMCB02 can be applied to round, square, aero, elliptical, and most factory crossbars. It is made with the passengers and drivers that are carrying oversized cargo. The basket does come with a fairing, and that's...

• How to Carry 4 Bikes with a 2014 Volkswagen Jetta Sportwagen
  Class I hitches have 2 bike limit because they cannot handle the added weight and leverage that is put on the hitch when the rack carries more than 2 bikes. The more bikes you load on a hitch mounted bike rack the further the weight gets carried away from the hitch so even if you are under the 200 lb capacity the torque from the added leverage will end up putting to much stress on the hitch. The only way you are going to carry 4 bikes with your 2014 Volkswagen Jetta Sportwagen is to...

  This is generally considered fixed mounting points. Prior to making a purchase, you'd want to see if those pads can be removed and if there are any hardware or mounting points actually concealed below them.

This rack is an all-in-one solution that will mount directly to your fixed points with no need for any additional purchases.

• Will Installing Rhino Rack Cross Bars On 2012 VW Jetta SportWagen Interfere with Sunroof
  I spoke with my contacts at Rhino Rack regarding your question about the crossbar system interfering with your sunroof. I was told that because the side rails on your SportWagen extend the full length of the vehicle roof, that the crossbars can be moved around so that they will not interfere. They tell me it would be safe to assume that the bars would interfere if they are placed directly over the sun roof. The bottom of the cross bars will sit about 3/4 of an inch above the top of your...
