Will these work with a 2013 Subaru Outback? We have 2 kayaks and are using Malone J racks, this looks so much easier.

They are not a fitted quite right for the outback crossbars, but they still work. They secure fairly well and I continue to use them with confidence. I only have one set, but think I could easily put on another set to carry two boats side by side.

They are much easier. I use them on my Jeep Commander, which is a big vehicle. I can fit both my kayaks on the Jeep. I don't think you could on your Outback. You will need to measure the width on your kayaks to see if both will fit on top of the Outback side by side. If they can fit on the top you would be good to go and you will love the ease of using this product.

I have one roll on and one set of wings. That combination works well. I don't think two sets of wings will work. Better check the wide of the top of the car. With the wide of the cargo rake it may be too narrow.

check the width of your rails for two wings. I use one wing on a "V" shaped kayak and Rhino Nautic 571 on a more flat bottom kayak. I have a larger vehicle.

Two of the mounts will fit, but that's not the issue. It's about the combined width of two kayaks that sit on top of them vs the width of the roof rack.There are other systems specifically designed to mount two kayaks that may be a better way to go about it.

Pulled up some pictures of the crossbars on the Outback, and it looks like they should fit without any problems. One photo I found showed a set of Yakima racks mounted to the stock bars of an Outback, so these should do the same. The mounting hardware for both are almost identical.

I do not know for sure - but they are awesome! We have two Necky kayaks on the racks. If the dimensions fit then I would think so. I am sure you can contact the manufacturer to be sure.

Ours were used on a 2006, which may or may not be helpfulThe parts fit fine, my son installed them in about an hourThe catch was that his Subaru Outback did not come with the factory cross barsThat added about $240 to the cost of adding the bars, which had to come direct from SubaruHowever, that isn't anything against the Yakima bars, they work perfectly and were easy to install

Not sure about the outback, I have a minivan with the factory roof rack that has the two adjustable cross bars. I attach my glide & set to the cross bars (going from driver side to passenger side). Not sure if they work on the roof racks that go from front to back only.

Not sure my factory aero bars would only work to haul one kayak, so I got the Malone bars tookstock off and can use two sets . If that helps you. My problem was could not fold rack s compleatly open.

I know they fit Thule square crossbars; (they work great w/ mine). They also supposedly work w/ Yakima round bars and aero-style bars. The brackets are heavy duty and a universal shape to accommodate different shaped crossbars. I am very happy with the Malone carriers; got 2 sets last year and hauled 2 kayaks everywhere. Rock solid carriers.

yes, absolutely. you can mount anywhere from 1 to 4 kayak racks on the Malone trailer. I imagine they probably have a bike rck attachment that could be used in place of one of the kayak racks.

They are made for the car. So they fit the best and look the best too. I think all the bars are rated for 150lb. So use your best judgement. I use them for 2 kayaks that weight 80 each and are 15 feet long. Never had any troubles.

Malone's site has a fit guide for cars. http://www.maloneautoracks.com/kayak-carriers.php I had mine on square bars but now have oval bars so I'll be modifying them to fit.

I have a 2010 Outback and they work fine. I don't think the body style changed from 10-13 but I'm not sure?? However, after I purchased and put them up I learned that my Outback had integrated cross bars. There are latches underneath the rails that run from front to back. If you release them another rail pops out and runs from drive side to passenger side. I would imagine your car has them too. Not sure if they'd work for you? Good luck!

Hello...it fit on the Thule square bars with no problem. I've only tested it with a Ocean Kayak in the driveway and it is very secure. I am also using ratchet straps to hold the boat down and not the ones that came in the kit. I also lined the rear saddles with felt so it will slide off instead of having to bounce off. We purchased another vehicle with factory side racks. I ordered Thule Oval Crossbars for it. Should be here in a few days. I am hoping the saddles will fit on them...it looks like it will...but will see.

Yes...the racks are adjustable in width. You place each set of racks on the cross bars at the widths you need. You would need to get wide cross bars to accommodate both kayaks.

These have quite universal clamps and open quite wide to clamp on the rails, you need to measure the width and see if these are what you want. We wanted wider then stock to give easier kayak loading and didn't care if they stuck out the sides. Under the product features it gives the rail size and location these will work with but if you still have concerns you could contact Discount Ramps but I would bet they'll just tell you what's on the listing. They're great rails, we use them a lot and easy to mount and remove.

Yes, as a matter of fact they are attached to my Thule bars right now. I have a Thule carrier and the malones attached to a Subaru Crosstrek. You will like the fold down feature also I think.
