    I have the Yakima q tower setup on my Tacoma. I have double checked all my measurements with the install on Yakima's site but it seems my front q tower is positioned weird. It is leaning forward instead of sitting vertical because of where Yakima says to mount it. Does everyone else mount there's exactly to spec from Yakima? This might be stupid but it just looks weird to me. Curious if everyone else's Yakima rack looks the same.

    Come to think of it, I think mine does angle very slightly forward. Can't say I have never had any functional issues with it. I imagine you could slide it back an inch if you prefered.
