I need some help installing these..
I bought some used 1A raingutter mounts and had some older 48" yakima cross bars. ARe the 48" too short?
For those of you that have the 1A gutter mounts, do you keep all of the rubber(footing) and plastic (spacer thing) on? I've tried to mount these but when I screw them down, the claw/hook thing doesn't sit inside the door. It hooks just underneath the chrome trim. The only thing I can think of is that I need longer bars to get a better angle/bite??

thanks
