you will have a couple options....
1 get thule/yakima mounts for your factory rails... use a hunter rack or something comparable..if security isn't an issue use the regular wall storage racks that they have at dicks or sports authority (unless you local B&T sells them) the mounts will stay on the rails for good but you can easily remove the rod rack...
option 2 is get rid of the factory rack and a yamima aftermarket rack with load bars...some of them have adjustable heights with the after market rack you may lower your clearance overall..
option 3 is to put a 2" lowering suspension kit or smaller tires (but you wont dont do that cuz thats just silly <--please dont do that!
or actually i just though of this is maybe you can make a 1 rod holder per side on the side of the horizontal rail...in otherwords you rod maybe ably to mount not on top of the rack but the side? i was gonna do this on the Fj but couldn;t get a secure bolt to go through the hunter rack so that got scratched.....
another way to go is get a rod rack and some nice zipties They can be reusable just undo them or cut em when you back from the beach..
