will these racks work for two kayaks on a 2007 honda crv, with cross rails?

I don't know, but I think they should. I have a 2008 Subaru Outback with factory cross rails and they fit just fine. The kit has two types of clamps. One type is for round cross rails and the other is for oval rails. Mine are more oval. Hope this helps.

It should work if the cross rails are less than 3.5" across (front to back).

I have an Xterra with wide cross rails and it works fine, They are adjustable.

That's exactly what we have for a car and the answer is, how big are your kayak's? If they are small, one person kayak's you may be fine. If you are trying to haul an old town two up with jump seat, no way. That was what I tried to do and almost lost a kayak on the interstate. Regardless, you'll have to buy some heavier straps if you buy these racks. The straps included are close to worthless. If you have small kayak's, 10' or smaller, you may be fine.

Agree with other CRV owner (15" wheels). There seems to be a fairly wide range that this rack would fit.

I think Yakima really designed this particular rack for the factory cross bars, since many of their other racks work with their proprietary shape. So, if your car is rolling with those bad boys, you should be all set; they set up on my Subaru no problem!

The bottom of the crossbars are at about the same height as the bottom of the side rails. As long as your side rails have decent clearance these should work.

Yes!! You get two complete sets of everything you need to mount 2 kayaks. These J racks mount to the Cross Bars on your Roof rack (the ones that go across your car from left to right NOT front to back). You get 2 sets (4) of the tie down Straps (these strap the kayak to the J racks), and 2 sets (4) of the tie down ropes w/steel hooks and 8 Rubber scratch guards (these tie the front and back of your Kayak to the front and back anchor points of your vehicle. The scratch guards slide up and down the ropes and you place them where the ropes would rub on the painted surfaces). These are excellent Quality and you cant beat this price for all that you get!

I have an '02 Odyssey and it works well with some adjusting. I have Honda cross bars and they work well but due to width of my canoe I need to attach half of the rack to thicker part of crossbar where it joins the factory side rails. It is pretty universal but I would also look at company web site too for more info.. You may just have to try it in the end. Amazon is pretty good on return policy, especially if you cannot get a solid answer. Good luck.

Probably since it is also a Thule product and the cross rails visually appear to be size that the kayak carrier brackets will fit. Best to call Thule customer service. They are very helpful.

I have two sets of them on a Honda Odyssey van and they work great. You need two racks per kayak. One for the front of the boat and one for the rear of the boat. My wife, who is 5'1", can get her own kayak off the rack, and put it up on the top of the car. It drops down to a manageable height so you just have to lift your boat about waist high. Then the gas struts help it go back up on top. The boat sits just outside of the edge of your roof line. From behind it looks like the boat is hanging over the edge of the car.

I had to also cut the bolts down a little on a 2009 FJ Cruiser. But these racks were great, went all the way to keys and back with two different size kayaks. No trouble and no worries. Although the buckles worked ok, I bought a set of good quality straps.

Mine are mounted on a stock Dodge Caravan rack; the tubes are oval on it. The SeaWing mounting is also oval, so your odds are good. I padded the mounting with slices of old black bicycle tires to fill in the mounting hardware vs. rack shape mismatch; that should help you too.

Mine holds two 33 inch wide SUPs on the factory cross bars of an Acura MDX but is is a very tight fit due to the cross bar width. On my 2004 Honda CRV I had to replace the factory cross bars with Yakima bars to make it fit. The units reduct the width 3 to 4 inches total so measure you crossbars and subtract the 3 to 4 inches. Also I did not need the longer bolts. Lastly the racks work great. I have used many other types of racks for surfboards and these are by far my favorite so far. The only thing are the pads are too narrow and made for round not arrow bars

No, the feet mounted easily on the crossbars (after I purchased longer screws - the BMW rails were too thick.) The two straps that came with the rack were plenty long and did a great job holding the kayak.

yes the crossbars fit the dealer installed rails on the 2013 CRV. We had the dealer install rails and then we bought the crossbars and had our mechanic install the bars because you need some special wrench to put the bars on the CRV.

I'm not 100% sure. They can be moved on the cross member, but I think the width of your kayak would be the determining factor.

We have a Yakima rack system on our vehicle with round bars and they work. We have rectangular bars on a trailer that we also use to haul them. The racks work even better on the rectangular bars. I think they are universal and should work fine for you.

I loved my cross bars, I used it for my kayak. It comes with all the hardware that you need. Hardest part I had was figuring out how to take the strips off my roof. Only had 1 kayak possibly 50lbs and it worked wonderfully with j racks.

Fits crossbars that are up to 3-1/2" wide and up to 2 1/2" high and will accept kayaks up to 3 feet wide and weighing up to 75 pounds. Car racks that go from drivers side to passengers side.
