I have a 1998 Pathfinder with factory rails.
I purchased some Rhino rack crossbars to mount a roof top tent, unfortunately the foot pack is where the bolts to mount the tent need to be. So at this stage I will be drilling new holes to move the tent rails at minimum.
My big issue is how high the tent sits on top of the crossbars. It seems to me like it would be easier to turn the rails that are fixed to the tent 90 degrees to rule out the need for the after market cross bars.
Do you guys see any potential issues with this idea?
Has any one here tried this before with pathfinder?
Is it better to just leave it how it is currently set up in the photos?
