Thule roof rack with 3 door liftback

[petyanca]

I have the drill-on setup with yakima bars and clamp type ski rack. I went on a ski trip with one pair of skis in the ski rack, and my mpg went down from 35 to 29 at 70 mph

Does 60" fit lengthwise of did you cut them ?

I have the same Thule parts
400XTR Rapid Aero Foot Pack
Thule Rapid Aero Aluminum Load Bar
KIT2196

And i install my Thule 598 Criterium........ So perfect and very rigid.
for 2 MTB's. FULL SUSPENSION/HARDTAIL/ROADBIKE doesnt matter. It deliver and hold.
love it.

I kinda like the drilling but, if i don't want my rack, i can remove it easily. No problem at all.
