Yakima Ski rack

Post by Heh! heh! »

Finally, after a two month wait, received the "Might Mounts" for the Vibe roof rack so I can now install the old Yakima ski rack that I used to use two vans ago! I hope the skis and snowboard don't extent so far back that the liftgate slams into them.

Phil, are you saying you have a Yakima rack on your Vibe? Do you have a faring, or did your forego the faring and push the bike troughs up as far front as you could to avoid the hatch? My initial attempt at putting my Yakima on my Vibe with the faring leaves it hanging a good 5-6" over the back of the car. It seems like I'd have to remove the faring in order to move the bikes further front.Any info you give me would save me the hassle of trial and error.Thanks!Tim
