## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can anyone comment on if they think these will hold a 22 ft canoe?**
A: Yes, but you'd need a canoe add-on that would hold it better.

**Q: Is it me or are these really easy to steal?  Anyone figure out a solution to make them more difficult for crooks?**
A: Instead of using the standard hook style bolt that's provided, you can purchase and use a torx head bolt of the same thread, thus making them harder to steal.
However, that also makes them harder to adjust as well.

**Q: Have you used this on the 2013 Ford Explorer?  They are too short to fit across the car.  Please help!!!**
A: Hello!  Unfortunately, I have not had the chance to install them yet.  I have a 2012 Explorer, so I'm wondering if the size is any different than the 2013. I will be very disappointed if they do not fit as they are specifically geared towards Ford per the title.

**Q: Will these fit a 2017 ford explorer xlt**
A: That, I am not sure, it appears that the overall dimensions of the 2012 and 2017 Explorers are the same, give or take an inch.  There isn't anything stating, whether the racks on the roof have the same tracking.  That really would determine the fit.  I know for the 2012, I am quite satisfied with it.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cross bars were as described and fast delivery
*by  on Reviewed in Canada 30 April 2026*

There were no missing parts and the instructions were easy to follow with installation taking no more than 10 minutes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Might as well say MotorCraft on the box!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States 26 November 2016*

Purchased this item on Amazon 11/19/2016 and it arrived 6 days later. Packaging was good and all parts were included. Installed on my 2012 Ford Explorer next day in about 15 minutes. Adjusted to the dimensions for the car top box I was going to buy (35.5" apart) to make sure it would match and then road tested. Drove around for a bit from 30mph up to 75mph and no wind noise where I had the bars positioned. Got back home and put a couple 2x4's on it and load tested about 250 pounds and no deflection on the bars and no stress on the factory roof side rails. From what I found sliding them around you can get them right next to each other or as far as 48" apart.This product was exactly as described in the Amazon.com description. I wish someone from Amazon would read through the reviews left by people that score it very low because they stripped a screw or it was packaged with the wrong parts. This may be valid for some, but they should say that specifically in their review. For someone who is 6'-3" tall and mechanically inclined I installed this in my garage in my bare feet in less time than it took me the night before to get it out of the box, unpackaged, examine the parts, and read the directions. Do not fault the seller with low ratings because you do not know how to thread a nut & bolt.The bars were labeled for front and back and the rail brackets left and right. Very easy to figure out... The bars also have about 2.5" of travel in the end caps to adjust to the width of their location on the roof rack. For some reason Ford made the front of the explorer's roof rails wider in the front than in the back. There is a set screw at each bracket, I would suggest opening them up to their longest width prior to lifting them onto the roof and once you hook the opposite side just push back together until it fits. Yes the end caps and roof rail brackets are made of plastic, MOST OF YOUR CAR IS MADE OF PLASTIC. Again, not a good reason to give one star. If these were made of metal they would be die cast, and if you did not fit them correctly they would break very easily if not aligned perfectly. The plastic is heavy duty automotive grade and I have no doubt they will last as long as anything else on the car that does not get run into or hit with a hammer...To summarize, these are a perfect fit and an exact match to what I would expect to buy at the Ford Dealer for the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) set for twice the price. This is an aftermarket 'knock off' as you will notice it is not made by MotorCraft but you cannot tell the difference in appearance or performance. Well worth the money compared to the other name brands and exactly what I expected it to be and very simple to install, especially if you have some experience with 'bolt-on' automotive accessories.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Punches way above its weight
*by  on Reviewed in the United States 29 June 2024*

Looks great. Very adjustable. Easy to install in under 10 min. I predict it won't be very durable, but I'm happy for the features I got at this price point.I ordered two sets and installed them both on my Ford Explorer. The extra cross bars should help with heavier loads, and give me extra tie down options.
