Can you fit four (4) on a roof rack?

Depends on the size of the car. We have a Chevy Aveo, could only fit two bikes. BUT ... my racks came with the lock and hardware for only one rack. When I notified the seller he told me I needed to send pictures of the hardware. Why? I didn't get any of the hardware, send me a complete bag of hardware. Comes from China, nearly impossible to get just the hardware. Buy somewhere else.

Easily, unless it is a compact car. I would have no problem, but mine is a full sized vehicle.

If you alternate the direction that they face so that if one is facing forward the one next to it is facing backwards you should be able to fit four on snugly.

Width of roof rack will determine but in most applications the answer is yes providing you alternate bike rack directions (example from left to right: #1 & #3 handlebars face front if car and #2 & #4 face car 'a rear).

It will be very uncomfotable to load the bikes. Technicali i dont see a problem if you have space on your rack but very unconvenient and i strongly dont reccomand

this carrier uses a 2 inch hitch receiver if your vehicle has the beefier 2 inch receiver then this bike carrier is awesome i'm guessing your Rav 4 has the smaller 1 & 1/4 hitch receiver. u would need an adapter for 2 inch to 1 & 1/4 but for a carrier that size i haven't found an adapter strong enough or flush enough to handle the sway and weight of 5 bikes. you might want to call Allen and see if the have on that is built for 1&1/4 receivers or a guaranteed adapter that will eliminate sway and support the weight of the carrier with 5 bikes... good luck P.S! Allen Sports does make a hitch rack filler plate converting the 2 inch to a 1&1/4 it looks sturdy you may have to try it out and see how it works

We have the 4 seater/extended roof and have not tried it yet. I hope that it would fit yours. Good luck!

Yes, four will do it. Good Luck on your install. Many hand rail styles only require two, but depends on they type of hand rails you purchased.

I honk they would work fine. The clamp is designed for a round setting but because the width between the tightening bolts is about 6 in. I think it would allow you to fit it over a square rack.

They fit on many 4x4 posts. But if your posts are angled at the top there can be a problem. I made some wooden shims to solve it.

This is not a rack. It is a great strap system that works with existing roof rack. If your van has a rack it should work despite having only one door.

Yup! I own 4 and they stack nicely together. I do not think you could stack much higher than 4 though. Hope that helps

I don't know about particular cars, but this is what I did before I purchased these racks (which have so far been awesome): - Measure the width of the roof of your car. Do this in the two places you expect to place the individual cross bars. My car roof (Volvo V50) is slightly tapered near the rear; not sure if this is universally true though. - Correlate this rough measurement with the appropriate model of SportRacks. There is a size chart somewhere detailing how far the bars expand. Pick a size that will accommodate your car roof (if in doubt, overestimate the width of your roof so the bars aren't too small; they can always be cut). - The measurements you take don't need to be precise. If the size of your roof is in-between or on the cusp of two rack lengths, go with the larger option. As to the mounting mechanisms, they are very adjustable to fit a variety of doors. I messed with mine for about 15min before getting a stable fit and then mimicked that setting on the remaining three mounts. It wasn't difficult at all. So far, so good with these bars, and I've done a ton of highway driving here in Alaska with a roofbox mounted on them (against the advice of SportRack!).

There are mounting bolts with threads under the plastic tabs on the roof . You just pop them off and screw into rack. Easy .

You could put 2 3 rack systems side by side. It would probably take up a bit more space than a 6 rack system, but would work if you have sufficient space.

One set for one kayak, if you have enough space on your rooftop rack you can fit 2

Don't know but I wouldn't do it. Too much surface area to catch wind and suck the racks right off your roof. Great for a kayak though.

this kit comes with brackets that will fit both square/round or the aero style racks. if either of these 3 are on your vehicle then they should fit no porblem.

These are adjustable from (approx.) 21" to 36" - so they will fit almost any '4 post' rack. The 'lip' (for lack of better terms) on the rails, which is on the front rail (of each of the pairs) is 15 1/2" deep and a little more than 1" wide. They will support almost any 19" box/appliance you can put in a rack. I have used them for lots of different Servers, etc. over the years. An inexpensive and universal alternative to factory rails!

Thank you for your interest. We have a 4 passenger driving enclosure with a shorter, 2 passenger rooftop that fits up to 58" top. Please see the following link for more information: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004UIGLJ2. Thank you! ~Formosa Covers

I am not sure if these are rack mountable. I know the 8 switch model. The 4 switch one is about half the width of the the 8 switch model(I have them both). The mounting holes on both models are identical size.
