Has anyone purchased kayak racks for their roof racks and the carriage bolts they provide (2 sizes- 2½” and 3¼” are too long and too short? Obviously going to hit the store and grab some either 2¾” or 3”. Had the same problem with my snowboard racks but just tossed the boards in my bed.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue and a remedy before I go buy a butt load of hardware.

I just took the longer bolts and cut them down to the right length.
