Specifically: The trailing edge is the long-taper side, the leading edge is a round-nose.Fyi they are on backwards
Nice! Exactly what I needed to know. So the kit includes everything needed for install? Was install easy enough to DIY? Thanks again for all the info!One dealer near me had them. I placed an order for pick up through parts.ford.com
I haven't noticed any noise so far actually. Only been on the highway twice (70mph) since I put them on. Didn't notice anything. Otherwise at 55 it's been silent. Already used them for a load of wood and transporting ladders around. Very happy. Side note, the dealer kit included the locks.
Typical rack-rail kits require the purchaser to supply some towels or blankets to temporarily protect the roof during installation itself, unless you have a spotter-person handy in addition to the person helping place the rails in the right spots.Nice!

I installed mine. I had no problems installing them myself. Lots of back and forth to line them up. Been up for a couple of months. Still waiting on my canoe.....Nice! Exactly what I needed to know.

Thank you everyone for the insight. Plan on ordering them up this week!it’s super simple. didnt take long at all.
plus the straps are rubber and wont scratch anything.
Super easy. Only need a tape measure so you can make sure your centered and even. Nothing else.Nice! Exactly what I needed to know. So the kit includes everything needed for install? Was install easy enough to DIY? Thanks again for all the info!
Those look great. How long are the bars, and are they the same length?Ok, on everyone's advice I went with the Thule crossbars and picked them up at the dealer. Easy to put on and even comes with the locks. Off to home depot for some ratchet straps. Thanks for the advice.
How far back did you place front bar from windshield? Thule on gives distance between the 2 but not placement for front barOne dealer near me had them. I placed an order for pick up through parts.ford.com

You can put them where you need them to be for your application. You can always change it depending on what you're using them for. This is where I put mine.How far back did you place front bar from windshield? Thule on gives distance between the 2 but not placement for front bar
But then they don't function aerodynamically (reducing wind noise) as they should.forwards or backwards, lol, they haven't failed me yet. I like the 'Thule' logo facing forward rather than backwards anyways.
no noise at all. worked perfect, and they never moved a centimeter through our entire trip. they are gonna come off soon for the winter anyways. no concerns here.But then they don't function aerodynamically (reducing wind noise) as they should.
