Distance Between Mounting Brackets on Kuat Class 4 V2 Kayak Roof Rack
Updated 12/15/2025 | Published 11/02/2024
Question:
I have the Yakima Timberline towers with round bars. My crossbars extend past my towers. I would like to place these over my towers so my kayak sits as far out as possible. What is the inside distance between the bar mounts?

Hi Joe; according to Kuat, the distance between the two mounting brackets inside to inside is approximately 4-1/4" on the Kuat Class 4 V2 # KU33VR .
