The clamps on the Custom DK Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack Legs # DK454 for the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for the Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRRLKVA & # RRVA118B-2 may loosen over time although this can be easily fixed by just re-tightening the Allen bolt inside the legs.
There has not been any prominent reports of this happening, but if you're concerned about it you could just check the legs on your crossbars to see if they've loosened up every so often.
Also, with your roof only having a 100-lbs weight capacity, you'd really be limited to that capacity as opposed to the bars maximum capacity.
