Rhino Rack Watersport Carriers Review - 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon- Video
Hey everyone, Charles here at etrailer and today we're taking a look at the Rhino-Rack J-Style Kayak Carrier on a 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon Wilderness. These are gonna be great for transporting a kayak as well as saving a lot of room in your cross bars for more accessories, like a cargo basket, another kayak, maybe even a bike. It's gonna be made out of steel, so it's gonna be very durable, lasts a long time. It's also finished with a black powder coat making it corrosion and rust resistant as well. The kayaks sit on these foam pads and this is a hard rubber down here at the bottom and it just keeps it protected, free from any scratches or anything like that. The buckles that tie down your kayak are gonna be coated in this rubber material, so if you are a little bit shorter than me and need the buckle over here, you can have that peace of mind knowing that it's not gonna scratch up your kayak as well. more

The kayak simply sets on the J-Rac and it has padding in areas where it's going to make contact with your kayak, to help protect it against those scratches that you might incur when you're trying to install it.This does come with both the tie-down straps, as well as the bow and stern tie-downs to secure this to your roof as well. With the straps, it does have this cover that goes around the buckle, again to help protect the hull of your kayak.Unfortunately, when everything's attached, you can not open your rear hatch. Mainly because of the bow/stern tie-down, but even if this wasn't there, if you we're to open this up, it would make contact with the kayak.This is made from a black powder coated steel construction, so it's very durable and it's also corrosion resistant.Now that we've gone over some of the features of the kayak carrier, let's go ahead and show you how it installs. Loosen one of them up completely and remove it, take off the clamp and push it off to the side like so and then set it onto our bar.
