Crossbars for the fourth generation Forester designated as SJ, produced from 2012 to 2019. We offer setups designed for raised roof rails, which stand on the roof of this car with a visible gap.
The fourth-generation Forester features raised roof rails on the roof. You can easily recognize them by the fact that you can easily slide your fingers under them, as there is free space between the rail and the roof.
Pay attention to boundary production years when choosing. If you have a vehicle from 2012 or 2013, check your vehicle registration document to make sure you don't own the older Forester SH version. If your car was manufactured in 2018 or 2019, it might already be the newer Forester SK.
Setups for raised roof rails clamp directly around their profile. Before purchasing, consider what you will be transporting on the roof most frequently. For bicycle racks or a roof box, you can use standard clamping around the bar or T-slot mounting in the crossbar.
Always check the exact package contents and mounting method directly in the specific product detail, as individual setups differ in their design.
The Forester is among taller cars, and after mounting a roof box or bicycle racks, the overall height will increase further. Keep this in mind before entering underground garages, parking structures, or driving under low-hanging branches.
The total permitted roof load includes the cargo along with the roof box and the crossbars themselves. You can find the permitted weight limit in the car manual.
