The countdown begins; my 2013 Outback V...

Ian, with the handles faceing down you will find they do hit the tower due to the forward slant of the tower. you'll have to swap the forks too. when you get them mounted on the tower it makes a lot more sense.

advise- have the single main alan head screw on the clamp facing inside the boat. this will make it super easy to remove/install from inside the boat.

second advise-you'rs will most likely need to have the corners filed down for clearance when they pivot--its that piece in the above photo that has 2 allen screws visible in the photo-goes from the swivel to the bar that holds the racks.

I can vouch for Stacy's plan on this one. I saw it a couple of weeks ago and let me tell you he had those racks on and off in about 30 sec. and they worked great and looked great. Made me want some.

Oh, man, I have the old skool tower so install was a SNAP.
