I couldn't put it on my 2 1/2 inch wide cross-body bag. bars
My cargo loc cross bars, which I also purchased on Amazon, are equipped with j hooks.
It was used for the front and back handles on the kayaks, as well as for running the t-shirts. Handle the loop through. They serve as a carrying mechanism as well as a tie-in. If you use ropes at these locations, use a down point for a rope to the front and back of the car. Simply tying our kayaks to the racks works well.
A large roof rack will not fit. This carrier system was installed on the roof rack of my wife's Escape, which is approximately a 1. Bar is 75" wide and oval in shape. It barely fits, but a round rack bar would be preferable.

Ignore the negative reviews; this is the best, most durable set with a plethora of straps and useful features. br>I am a 38-year-old woman. year- The woman and I have just gotten this installed in 30 minutes but there's been so many complaints on the Internet that they need to cut any straps that don't fit, as that would be like me taking scissors to my brother-in-law's wedding band. So if year- old climbs up there and assists me in strapping them in, and we do everything together from start to finish, and I have an 8 foot tall van, so I just use a small step ladder to get those kayaks up into that rack.
Large white logos, bright orange straps, and instructions that were not accurate for what was shipped. I'm afraid I won't be able to return it because I need it for this weekend, but I chose this version because it was logo-free and subtle. At the very least, new straps will be required, as well as a solution to the obnoxious logos. I was let down.
This system is being used to secure two kayaks to our pop-up camper. It's a high-quality system that's also simple to set up. It includes all of the necessary hardware, straps, and other accessories for standard installation. We've taken it on two trips and put about 400 miles on it with kayaks installed, and we've had no problems.
The crossbar began to sag as the bars began to sag. We had to use extra straps to keep them secure until we arrived at our destination, which was 5 hours away. Needless to say, we had to come to a halt frequently to ensure that they were still holding. We'll see if there's anything else we can get for the rubber gaskets that will work better. When we arrived at our destination, one of the gaskets had completely failed, and the other three J-type gaskets had failed as well. The bar gaskets were ripped to shreds. There is no way to save them. J-style is my favorite. Overall, the bars are great, but the components that came with them are not.
I had no trouble mounting them and continued without issue. So far, I've only gone on one trip with two kayaks, and there was very little wind noise, and they were still secure and stable after a three-hour drive. I also like how they fold up so I don't have to take them off after each trip. I may take them down in the winter. br>Overall, I believe these are a fantastic value for the money. They've made me very happy.
This company provided us with a quick response and a product that was exactly what we required. Excellent product.
Overall, I don't think these are the best; I like the collapsibility feature, but that's about it. The foam had a large white logo on it that was not visible in the sales information, and the knobs cracked when I tried to put them on. The bolts were excessively long. The Amazon app does not allow you to contact this seller, and Amazon does not accept phone calls. I need to contact this company urgently but have no idea how to do so. Disappointed to the point of frustration.
It folds down nicely, which I like. We were able to enter the garage as a result of it. It is extremely durable and performs admirably.
