Good weather yesterday so I installed the roof rack on the wife’s new RAV4. The crossbars don’t point the same direction; the bars’ profiles are at different angles.

Also, the factory rails on the car are not parallel. The rear feet are 3” inches closer together than the front. On my Explorer, I’m able to swap the front crossbar/feet with the rear and vice versa. The RAV4 will have separate front and rear units.

Now I’m wondering how the crossbar angles will impact the canoe cradles.
