Hey Hugh, the MOS Uplifter Roof Rack Assist with Bike Rack part # MR36ZV would be a great option for you as it will give you the ability to load your bikes 2 feet lower to the ground than the current crossbar height you have. Check out the picture I attached to see what I mean. The person in the picture loading the bike is on the shorter side as well.
