Clearance Measurement From Roof For Kayak Carrier On 2014 Kia Soul  

Question:

Ive installed the Kia factory crossbar roof rack on my 2014 Soul and now need more hardware to carry my kayak. I prefer the looks and strength of your fixed J model S510 Universal mount over Kias, but need to know what clearance is needed above the roof for the knobs underneath to fit. Sorry if thats a lame question Just want to be sure itll work, Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:

I pulled one of the Rhino-Rack J-Style Kayak Carrier, part # S510 from our warehouse and took a measurement for you. I have attached a photo that shows the measurement of the knob and the bottom plate that goes under the crossbars on your 2014 Kia Soul.

As noted on the photo, the combined measurement is 1-3/8 inches. If you have more than 1-3/8 inches from the bottom of your crossbar to the roof then these will work well for you.
