Do I need an additional clamp kit to mount this to the bars? Subaru dealer says I do.

Hi Kim, I have a Subaru legacy. It did NOT originally have a roof rack/ crossbars, so I had Subaru install Subaru made crossbars. Once i had Crossbars I only needed this saddle/ kayak rack. They are adjustable to the fit the Crossbars you have, and once on you can pop the kayak right on top! Best of luck and happy kayaking!-Amy

universal means just that; these carriers should mount to just about any factory rack or aftermarket crossbars.

I'm not certain about that particular model. Judging by the pic, it should fit just fine. They look the same as my Yakima saddle mounts. Notice the ziggerat shape? There's a foam pad on the other side. It's stepped like that to conform to the various shapes of racks out there.

We did not need anything additional. We have a Honda Ridgeline with a roof rack.

I have a Subaru WRX and this rack is adjustable and will fit both the factory bars, or the Yakima bars

If you already have clevis mounts then you are good to go. Easy to install. Slip then into the clevis with the tensioner that comes with then, slip the bolt through the holes , put the nut on and tighten. If you don't have the clevis mounts already then Kurakayn has then too. They just install with one bolt through the end. Simple simple

Apparently I should've asked, mine didn't come with the clamps to mount to the cross bars.

2-piece clamps, 2 bolts per clamp. assemble all parts before tightening and aligning. If there are control lever clearance issues, use PVC pipe or similar to create room for levers. This may necessitate using longer bolts than those provided, but the result is a sturdy installation. Provide me with e-mail address and I will send pix of my XT250.

No top mounting kits are required, it's been awhile since I installed them but the top just required 3 bolts that you took loose and I believe that they provided new bolts to install the new strut back into place.

This little guys should work on just about any style bike you have. the clamps should fit around you bars with no issues.

It does come with 2 clamps. The clamps fit 1 inch bars. It also comes with adapters to fit 7/8 bars.

It comes with two clamps. Both are 1" but there is a rubber gasket provided that fits 7/8" bars. So if you have 1" or 7/8" you will have what you need. Even includes the necessary allen wrench for installation.

No, you don't. Many universam accessories can be mounted on your cross bars. But read carefully what size and style cross bars the accessory clamps will fit on ( ie. Some fit only square or round bars). Enjoy!

No, this rach needs to use clamps like these; http://www.nashbar.com/bikes/Product_10053_10052_143675_-1___204669 You will need 2 pair. Rer=gards, Thom in Tech

Depends on where your beams you are going to use are. You need to span them. Used a piece of unistrut on mine rather than a bar.

Thats what I put them on and it worked but I ended up using the stock bolts on the bar ends because the bars have a welded nut at the end. You also may have to adjust the levers for the bar clamp

You will need clamps. But read reviews for product before you buy. Just sayin'

No, if you look at the existing bars you will see four pre-drilled and threaded holes. The two cross bars come with metric bolts that attach to the existing bars. The downside to this design is that the cross bars are not adjustable for various items you may want to mount. Hope this helps.John

This windshield has two Allen head mounts that clamp to your handlebars. As long as you have room on your bars you should be good.

No. You should check out ones made for aero bars. Check out barfly TT mount. Hope that helps

If you have the bar that looks like a blade then this is not designed for that. You may have to contact Thule and get what you need as far as adapter clamps. This is on my regular Thule bar, the rectangular tube approximately 1 1/2 x 3//4 bar. They fit that perfectly. Again contact Thule is the best solution here. Thanks Jim
