How to pick Center vs Offset Kayak Mount

The 'Y' Kayak Mounts (Carriers) and the 'J' Kayak Mounts (Carriers) come as a "Center" or an "Offset" to allow for better locations and configurations of the kayak on the rooftop depending on which crossbars fit any given vehicle.  

 

We recommend the following based on your EXR crossbar package:

- All 51" Click-in xBars - get (2) Center Mounts per kayak

- All 48" Click-in xBars - get (2) Offset Mounts per kayak

- All 40" Click-in xBars - get (2) Offset Mounts per kayak

- Mixed size Click-in xBars - get (1) Center + (1) Offset per kayak
