Can the Yakima RoadShower Portable Solar Shower Be Mounted Below The Crossbars?

Question

Question:

Will this hang from the bottom of Yakima cross rails that are on a Subaru Forester. I have the 60" cross rails. More concerned about weight. Thank you

The Yakima RoadShower Portable Solar Shower # Y89VR does not have a provision to mount them below the Yakima crossbars on your Subaru Forester. The mounting channels are on the side and bottom of the shower and with a height of 5-3/4" tall I find it hard to believe there is enough room to physically position it under your crossbars. And if you were to have enough room and position it upside down the water would not flow out the valve since it would be on tow where the air is inside the tank.
