Question:

I have ordered Landing pad 19, 70” jet stream Cross bars, and two showdown lifts for my 2020 Honda CR-V Touring Hybrid with factory rails front to back. I am trying to figure out if I can get in my garage with kayaks on. I need to know how far above the factory rails will the top of showdown be when locked on the top of the car.

Helpful Expert Reply:

The Yakima Baseline towers # Y28TR with the landing pad 19 will leave you about 5-1/4 inches from the top of your bar to the roof of your 2020 Honda CR-V. That being said the Yakima Showdown # Y04081 will sit about 9 inches up from the top of your bar when the kayaks are not loaded.
