How to Align Rain Gutter Towers on Roof of 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
Question:
I just installed this setup on my jeep. Just looking at it. looking at it. I have the towers all the way to the end caps of the bars. Is there a specific span i should be working to. Instructions just indicate to pull towers outward and tighten. my towers are are standing pretty straight up. another quick question is the load limit? Thanks

Expert Reply:
Your roof capacity is going to be limited by what Jeep lists as the roof capacity in the owners manual. Aftermarket racks will have much higher capacities than what a Wrangler will have.
For the rain gutters part # Y00101 Yakima recommends having them set vertical on the roof of your vehicle.
