Expert Reply:
On the back I would anchor to the hitch or the tow hooks underneath the vehicle. Up front, I would use the tow hooks welded or bolted to frame. Make sure you keep the straps away from anything that gets hot or moves as the straps could melt or be cut.
You may have to consider longer cross bars, like part # MPG216, to accommodate all 4 kayaks.
