Thule Crossroad-Roof Rack Mounting System
Turn the factory installed raised rails on your vehicle into a versatile, multipurpose rack system. The iron grip of the Crossroad, provided for by the flexible steel clamping strap, allows for unmatched strength and security when mounting carriers to the roof of your vehicle. Whether you are biking, boating, skiing, or packing up for a well-deserved weekend away, this mounting system is perfect for safely transporting whatever you need to your next destination.

In this video we are going to show you how to install a Thule Crossroad roof rack onto a Suburban with existing side rails. We will be using the Thule Crossroad feet, part number TH450, and Thules 58 inch load bars, part number THLB58. The Crossroad pack comes with four Crossroad feet, the end caps with the built in Allen key and four smaller end caps that will go on the end of our bars. The Crossroad feet are designed to quickly and easily attach to the factory side rails on your vehicle. The band is actually a steel band coated in rubber. This gives it plenty of strength but the rubber also protects your factory side rails. It is going to loop around your side rail and connect back to the foot. Then we will use the end cap with the built in Allen head wrench to tighten down this bolt. It will tighten the whole system down to your vehicle, as well as tighten down the crossbars in the foot. 0:55
Now we are going to assemble one and get it ready to mount on our vehicle. We are going to take our crossbar and feed one of the Crossroad feet over it. Next we are going to snap our end cap. We are going to take our first crossbar assembly and mount it all of the way on the front of our side rails. Because the Crossroad system is designed to attach to vehicles with existing side rails, there are no unique measurements per vehicle. All that you have to do is make sure that your crossbar spread from the center of the front crossbar to the center of the rear crossbar is a minimum of 24 inches. We will also make sure that the crossbar overhangs the feet evenly on both sides. Once we have everything lined up, we can start tightening things down. 1:37
As we tighten the Allen bolt down, it is not only going to grab on to the side rails but it is also going to lock our crossbar into place. Now that we have the driver side foot snugged down, we are going to move to the passenger side, tighten that one all of the way down and come back and finish up with the driver side. Once it is good and tight, we will take the end cap, slide it into position and it snaps into place. We will repeat the same process for the crossbar in the rear. You can also install Thule lock cores, part number TH544. The lock cores will allow you to secure the Crossroad feet to your vehicle so that the roof rack cannot be easily removed. And that does it for our Thule Crossroad installation on our 2010 Chevrolet Suburban.

I am very happy with the foot attachments for my old Thule bars. I purchased a new car and was a little bit leary of the way they might attach to the new roof rack but these were VERY easy to assemble and strapped right onto the new rack in no time. The rubber end caps for the bars are very difficult to get on and off though.22101

Great service provided here are etrailer.com. I am very happy with my order. I ordered the product on Monday at like 11:00AM and chose the free 5-7 day shipping. They gave me 3-5 day shipping for free and had the product shipped out that day!!! I got it on Thursday with everything I order. There were no issues with anything. They emailed me like 1 hour after the product arrived to make sure everything was good. I would definitely buy here again, and refer my friends to etrailer.com.25273

Easy to install and great price over the standard VW one for sale. Saved about $100. Recommend it to anyone who has rails that come stock on the vehicle and just need bars. 25175

It's amazing how easy these "feet" are to install. I had old square bars (about 20 years old) and the feet and bars matched up perfectly. I have a Honda Pilot (2011) and the feet fit the factory rails perfectly. Ultimately I put a Thule pod on the square rails and everything fit perfectly. I highly recommend this product!47580

The product, a roof rack for my kayaks on my Jetta is perfect. The best part was how easy it was to use your website to find the exact product I needed. The cream on the top was the free and fast shipping. I put the rack on with little trouble and have transported my kayaks on it. I had tried to use the manufactures' website and got nothing but frustrations. Yours was great. Thanks21903
