Installing the Thule Bars on 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon

Question:

Hello, I am trying to install a Thule roof rack system on a 2017 Subaru Outback with the factory installed rails/crossbars. I am using the Fit Kit for Thule Podium-Style Roof Rack Feet, # THKIT4063, Evo Fixpoint Feet # TH49SC, and ARB53-4892019 Crossbar. However, when trying to install the rear crossbar, seems the spacing between feet is less than the front setup.

Positioning of the feet is influenced by installed rails please ensure you have these in the proper location. I have linked the installation instructions for the Evo Fixpoint Feet # TH49SC below in case you did not receive some with your order. The Evo Fixpoint Feet # TH49SC and Fit Kit # THKIT4063 are for the 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon but exclude the Touring model.
