Height Difference Between Front And Rear Crossbars For Roof Rack On 2013 Honda CR-V

Question:

I have installed the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black System onto my Honda CRV 2013 bare roof, and it looks beautiful. I did notice that the height from the ground of the front bar is about one inch lower than the back bar. This seems to make sense because of wind when driving, but I thought I should ask and see if this is normal and not a problem. Thank you! Michael J.

I am glad the roof rack seems to be working great on your CR-V.

The difference in the height of the legs on the roof rack from the front to the back may be due to the contour of the roof on your CR-V but you may want to check the installation instructions again to make certain you have them placed in the right position and at the correct distance.
