Once installed what is the clearance from the vehicle roof to the bottom of the rails?

The cross bars have a curve to them and the roof has ridges. So the average clearance between bottom of cross bar and roof top is about 11/4" and max of 1.5 inches. Good luck.

My husband says it is 1 3/4" to 2" depending on where you measure. Be careful when you pry off the rear end caps. Try to not break them or scratch the car. The rest is a simple installation.

Aprox. 4 inches from the bottom of the bar to the roof. This rack is not only very functional and durable but it looks tough. I am stopped regularly by jeep enthusiasts as to the brand and model. Im an avid adventurer. I use it for big kayaks, mountaineering/camping equipment, bikes and snowboards. Any other questions please feel free to ask. Good luck.

I had an '11 Rouge and there was 1 1/2- 2 inches overhang on each side. Not sure how wide my rails were but you could measure yours and see what the difference was. They have been a great product for me.

Vernon...the mounts extend quite a bit further than the rail itself. So "measure twice" and "install once"/LOL

Hi, yes if your model has the raised side rails and not the ones that are flush to the roof. There needs to be space between the bottom of the side rail and the roof

I can't answer this without driving to the installation location but I believe it is an extra rails length of extension.

The width will be the distance between your existing rails. I had a Yakima box on top this summer and the box mounts/locks touched the top of the roof. So hopefully your box will have shallow mounts. Durant

Mine measures in at whopping 9 7/8" from the ground to the bottom of the hitch (the reciever) with no load at all in the van. The cross tube of the hitch unit is just about 9 1/2".

I would say approx 2" I have the Polaris sport top and I have quite a bit of clearance.

This cover sits just about flush with top of the bed rail. The only additional clearance comes from weather strip, so at best you may get 1/4". However this entire cover can be removed, and re-installed in under 2 minutes.

I don't know any thing about the gun you said. But I can say the clearance between bottom of the ring(inside) to top surface of the rail is 0.88 in.

I have a 2011 Kia Sorrento with the panoramic roof. I do not have the cross bars on right now so I cannot say the clearance, but I can say mine does not have a clearance problem.

I get a measurement of 38" from inside to inside of my top rails on a 2014 Sportwagon.This gives me a 6" overhang on each side.Hasn't been a issue yet.

The clearance between the side rails at the front of the platform is 14-1/2", at the rear, it is 14". The depth is 12-1/2".

I just measured mine and it is only 25 inches from bottom of wheels to very top of metal bar
