Is Installing Malone Roof Rack on 2019 Subaru Forester Difficult
Published 07/05/2019
Question:
Thanks the video was helpful. So, it looks like the mechanism that clamps the bar to the rail is the same as the mechanism that adjusts the overhang length. So the overhang needs to be reverified on both ends before tightening, every time the crossbar is installed. Is that right?

The install and removal of the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack part # MPG216 is really pretty easy. If you planned on removing them and installing them frequently you wouldn't have a problem at all. It would take just a couple minutes.
If you check out the install video I attached you can see the rack installed on a similar 2015 Subaru Forester to yours.
