Question:
Hello Sir/Maam, I have a question regarding roof racks/crossbars. I currently have two vehicles and was looking for a roof rack primarily for my Subaru forester 2023 with side roof rails not wilderness. I am interested in buying the 49in long rhino black roof racks RRVA126B-2. My goal is to get a size that will fit my Subaru and my Corolla hatchback 2022. I am wondering if I could just buy different legs and use the bar interchangeably? Is that possible with the length of crossbars that I am choosing? If you think this will not be possible with the size I am choosing, then can you please recommend something? I really want to avoid buying two crossbars if I can. Thank you. Very respectfully,

There is a couple of roof racks by Rhino Rack that uses similar sized crossbars that will do what you're wanting. You'll want to use the longer 49" crossbar item # RRVA126B-2 that is recommended for the Subaru. The 46" crossbar item # RRVA118B-2 for the Corolla will be too short on the Forester.
For your 2023 Subaru Forester with side rails you will need the following parts:
Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 49" Long - Qty 2 item # RRVA126B-2
Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Raised Factory Side Rails - Qty 4 item # RRSX100
