Any further word on this? We are getting ready to invest in a pair of Outbacks, and that rail (and associated accessories) would be extremely useful. Would love to have for this summer...

Thanks. Bummer there isn't a universal kit. I have a 2015 outback and would love to put the h-rail on it.

Universal kits are:

84626001 H-RAIL BOLT ON RAIL KIT 9” $19.99

You could adapt the Pro Angler kits as well... just not cut to fit as they come.

I got a pair of the 9" H-Rails today. Set them out on an Outback for locations:

I'd put them on top so you don't lose the convenience of the molded in tubs.

Thinking out loud here. Are these strong enough to carry the weight of the outback? Lemme explain:
When you lift a Revo 11 or 13 overhead, the handles are pretty much at the balancing point so neither the bow nor stern feel weighed down; however in an Outback (even with the new matching rigid handles) the weight balance bow-stern is a bit off so you struggle more when loading it overhead.
Just curious.

If you are considering mounting a H-Bar on an Outback, be sure to locate it where it won't interfere with climbing back into the kayak if you get dumped out.

I've seen this on a couple of Outbacks and want to add it to mine. i am leaning towards using a 9" on the front as in the last picture by KeuKayak and the video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjfajhQ3qhM. I've also seen someone use a 21 inch rail and mounted it in front of the cup holder all the way to the front as in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqVBkINDejQ. The last one may interfere with the built in rod holder, but it allows for a much cleaner fish finder install. Anyone tried either of these locations? Any suggestions on which may work better?
