As the angle of the car roof drops down to the rear,Are they different heights for the front and rear? To prevent roof platforms from sitting on an angle pointing up

[@WrenchingRyan]

I don’t noticed any difference during installation, when I install them again I’ll pay attention on height differences and let you know. Thanks for watching.

Ryan you forgot to mention some Sportage models have bare roofs with no rails to attach the racks to !!!

[@WrenchingRyan]

Sorry about that, some sportage who release in 2021 don’t have rails. Thanks for watching.

What about sunroof clearance?

[@WrenchingRyan]

If you choose aftermarket roof rack you might have issue on sunroof clearance, my opinion OEM parts are always best choice. Thanks for watching.

The manual makes it seem like it's more important to measure the inches between the front Rail and the back Rail and that the 17 inches from the back of the roof to the back rail is like leftover.
