    I must be a little lost, but I cannot find the installation page for the toprac. the website shows installation pages for the cabrac's and accessrac's. any leads? lol

    Its pretty straight foward. I did not have any instructions either.

    You want to attach the feet to your track first, Loosely.
    Then attach the 2 cross bars to those feet, again loosely.
    Attached the side rails the the cross bars.
    At that point you can begin to line everything up and tighten down!
    Attach the rest of the cross bars at the end.

    Yeah i assumed it pretty straight forward, its just my box came with both my toprac and my cabrac, so there was a TON of stuff. I guess I couldnt find the feet to the tracks, do you have a photo/image?

    I believe he changed the way the toprac mounts awhile back. You may have a older one?

    Are those the 66" Yakima bars or did you mean the bars are 54" wide? I just bought a rhinotrack ditch setup to haul a couple kayaks, haven't mounted it up yet. Just curious if mine will look similar with regard to bar width. I'm hoping they are 66" because it doesn't look too bad.

    Does everyone go with the single row led bars bc that is the only way to be flush with the the rest of the rack? Looks nicer but wondering how many ever overhang cargo over the front of the wind screen. Trying to decide between led's so just wondering.

    I have seen most people if not all do single row with one of the wind deflector cutouts because if I'm not mistaken they were designed to fit the heretic light bar. I think it's mainly for looks, a lot of people throw kayaks and canoes on but if you put a double I'm sure if would be ok. Most of the time when I see a double it has either been with custom brackets or no wind deflector. What it comes down to is what you want your look to be and will you hang stuff off the front of the rack.

    Yes, they are 66" Yakima bars. I should have clarified that the bars are separated 54" front to back. My solo canoe's are only 12' long, so I only run 2 straps. 1 over each bar to support the canoe. I have since put a Leer 100R cap.
