I ordered a truck rack Monday Sept 17th just after 8am pacific time. Within an hour I received an e-mail that the order was being processed. A short time later i received an e-mail that the order had shipped . I received my order on Friday the 21st. I have installed the Rack in my truck and it looks great. I am a return customer and would recommend etrailer to anyone in the market for any items they may need. Etrailer your great. Thanks for the fantastic service.
by: James N.01/09/2018
More expensive than other racks but I was impressed with the quality of the components, the directions and even the packaging. I wanted racks that I could adjust as low as possible to ease the loading of kayaks and just clear the cab. These adjust to just about any height you'd want in 3/4 inch increments. My only doubt is whether the C clamps that secure the bases to the bed rails might loosen over time.

The Thule rack has met all of my expectations quality, ease of installation, and versatility. My install is on a utility trailer used for various tasks. Removing and replacing the rack takes about 15 minutes, highly recommend this product.

Easy transaction, the box arrived torn but there was nothing missing or damaged. Great price and service. Had a question and called and spoke to Lori AB. and received excellent service. Have purchased from etrailer before and will continue to make purchases with them.

Very expensive with poor bolt design for top rails. Bolts can easily fall out. Replacement bolts from Thule require the purchase of a whole package for $52. For the price expected a better design
by: Fred06/17/2021
They seemed good was relatively easy to put together the look pretty. If you happen to bump into anything with them slowly or not they will pop at the aluminum base on the side of the truck. As always with racks you should be aware of any items hanging but it did not slow down or give a warning you bump into something it just snapped. They are light and easy - also make sure to lubricate the parts that move or they can bind up.

got it put together, when it arrived i was a little bummed , shipping wasn't kind to my rack, has some dents in the cross bars but, i put some surfboard pads on and i can live with it. It works great, just went and bought a massive SUP board so all is good.
thx much steve e.

Ability to raise and lower the rack is very useful. It allows me to keep the boats as low to the ground/truck cab as possible for easier loading/unloading. I can raise the rear rack and load a motorcycle without removing it. I have removed the endcaps and run straps through the crossbars and was able to load two 17 aluminum canoes at once. Note, the endcaps are a bit delicate and extremely expensive to replace!

I recently made a 4 hour trip home after picking up a new kayak while using the following equipment for the first time: Thule Xsporter Pro Truck Bed Ladder Rack, Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier w/Tie-Downs - J-Style, Thule Watersports Adapter for Aeroblade/Aeroblade Edge Bars and Thule Bow/Stern Tie-Downs. I'm impressed with the performance of all of those components.
by: Love It05/07/2020
Did some trimming on the truck bed rail to get max distance between brackets. I use the raise lower and removal function often and it’s ease to do. Only con is that I haven’t found a tonneau cover that works with it due to the bracket wrapping the bedrail.

- Ladder Rack Fit for 2019 Ford RangerWe have the perfect way for you to carry ladders with your 2019 Ford Ranger, although there is not a front-mounted hitch that fits this truck. There are ladder racks though which will work to carry your extension ladders as well as other gear. So long as your '19 Ranger is a 4-door Crew Cab with a 5'6" bed OR a 4-door Super Cab with a 6'6" bed there are two ladder rack options: - Thule Xsporter Pro Adjustable Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH500XT (Silver) or # TH500XTB (Black) - Thule...

My contact at Thule said that the clamps should have no problem fitting, the problem may be with the vertical bar that goes into the bed. This vertical bar may interfere with the utili-track because it sticks further into the bed. If you are willing to cut that portion of your track, it should work....

This will give the for sure ability to fit in your garage and when needed you could adjust the height of the bars higher to fit your canoe. We had the chance to install this on a similar 2017 Ford F-150 to yours and we found it fit and worked great. See the attached install video for more info.
view full answer... - Clamp Recommendation for Securing Thule Xsporter Ladder Rack to 2005 Toyota TundraI checked with Thule and to install the Thule Xsporter part # TH500XT that you appear to have in your 2005 Toyota Tundra would require the standard clamps that come with this ladder rack like the part # 8523159001 that you referenced. Then for new hardware you'd want the part # TH752-1391-001.

- How To Use Malone DownLoader On Thule Xsporter Pro Adjustable Height Truck Bed Ladder RackIn order to mount the Malone DownLoader Kayak Carrier part # MPG114MD on a Thule Xsporter Pro Adjustable Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack part # TH500XT, I recommend the Truck Rack Crossbar T-Slot Fit Kit for Malone Kayak Carriers part # MPG8287.

Among the covers listed is their UltraGroove Metal cover KMN5780 which is noted as being compatible with Thule ladder racks. For the Crew Cab, 5 Foot Bed without Utili-Track System, Thule's Xsporter Pro Adjustable Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH500XT is available. It is suggested that you verify which specific cover you have in case it is not this particular one. If instead you...

This system includes 4 heavy-duty aluminum load stops that fit in the T-slots on the crossbars and also includes 4 side cleats attached to the uprights for additional tie-down options. This is a fixed upright system and has a weight capacity of 800 lbs. Another option for your Tacoma I recommend is the Thule Xsporter Pro Adjustable-Height Truck Bed Ladder...

This has crossbars that are 72 inches in length and has an adjustable height.

These come in a quantity of 1 so you'll need to order 8 of them if you don't have any to install the ladder rack on your 2015 GMC Canyon. For replacement mounting hardware for the clamps you need the kit # TA7521446001 along with whatever quantity of the Clamp Foot # TAPT-27300 you need to replace as well. The...

- Ladder Rack Recommendation that Fits a 2021 Jeep Gladiator While we do carry great ladder racks for your 2021 Jeep Gladiator, I confirmed with Pace-Edwards that they do not have a model that is engineered to fit your vehicle. With that being said, for a great option that fits, the racks we have depend on if you have the Trail Rail system installed or not. If you have the Trail Rails installed, I recommend the Thule TracRac TracONE # TH27000XTB (black) or # TH27000XT (silver). This rack comes with super heavy duty 6000-series aluminum and has...
view full answer... - Ladder Rack and Tonneau Cover Recommended for 2015 Ford F-150 6-1/2 Foot BedBecause the Thule # TH500XT Ladder Rack wraps around the top and to the inside of the bed side, it'll interfere with installing a tonneau cover. This being said, we do offer certain ladder racks and tonneau covers that are compatible with each other. For a tonneau cover you'll want to use a cover that mounts to the inside of the bed side which leaves the top of the bed side free. The BAKFlip G2 # BAK26327 mounts to the inside of the bed sides, which leaves the top of the bed side open...
view full answer... - Amount of Clearance Over Cab When Using Thule Xsporter on 2016 Ford F-150The Thule Xsporter Pro Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH500XT is adjustable. I don't have the exact measurement from the top of a 2016 Ford F-150's cab however I can tell you at its highest setting it will be 31-1/2 inches above the bed rails. So if you measure from the top of your bed rails to the top of your cab and subtract the difference this will give you the measurement you're looking for.
view full answer... - Availability of the Thule Xsporter Pro for a 2016 Toyota TundraWe do have the Thule Xsporter Pro available for your 2016 Toyota Tundra as long as it doesn't have the Deck Rail System. The Xsporter comes both in Silver # TH500XT and in Black # TH500XTB, and is compatible with any of the 5-1/2 foot, 6-1/2 foot, or 8 foot bed lengths that the Tundra comes with. I have attached a couple of review videos that you can check out as well.
view full answer... - Availability of Adjustable Height Ladder Rack to Fit 1997 Dodge DakotaI wish we had an adjustable height ladder rack we could recommend, but nothing we offer in this style of side-mount ladder rack is height adjustable. For an adjustable height ladder rack that does fit your 1997 Dodge Dakota the only option would be a rack like the Thule Xsporter part # TH500XT which is a confirmed fit.
view full answer... - Ladder Rack Compatible w/ Truck Bed Toolbox for 2006 Dodge Ram Short BedYou could install the # TH500XT Thule Xporter Pro with a tool box, but to mount the box you'd need an extra long J hook or you'd need to drill down through the box, through the mount for the ladder rack and through your bed side. TracRac has a much better solution. Their Pro 2 ladder rack, part # TH37003XT has a much larger capacity, at 1000 lbs versus 450 lb capacity of the Xsporter. The ladder rack includes integrated mounts that make installing your toolbox very easy.
view full answer... - Will Thule Xsporter Pro and TracONE Adapter Kit # THXK4 Work on 2019 Toyota Tacoma The Thule Xsporter Pro and TracONE Ladder Rack Adapter Kit # THXK4 that you referenced is indeed the correct hardware kit to allow installation of the Thule TracONE # TH27000XT or Xsporter Pro # TH500XT Ladder Rack on your 2019 Toyota Tacoma if it features the factory Deck Rail System. If you happen to have the black version of either of the above mentioned ladder racks then you can use # THXK4B instead to match the color. These will just replace the standard clamps that came included...
view full answer... - Ladder Rack Compatible with Tonneau Cover on 2015 Toyota Tundra SR5The Thule Xsporter Pro Adjustable Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack - Aluminum - 450 lbs - Silver # TH500XT is not compatible with a tonneau cover because it attaches on the inside of the bed rails. Tonneau covers use that same space so the two are not compatible. If you have a tonneau that fits inside the bed rails of your Tundra, then you can use the Thule TracRac Sliding Rack # TH43002XT-610 for 6.5 foot bed or # TH43002XT-011 for 8 foot.

- J-Style Kayak Carrier That Fits Thule Xsporter Pro Ladder RackWhile there is a J-Style kayak carrier that will work with the Thule Xsporter Pro Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH500XTB (Black) or # TH500XT (Silver) that fits your 2015 Ford F-150, the bars are a bit too wide to use the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier # Y04073. Instead, what you would need is the Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier w/Tie-Downs - J-Style # TH834 with the Watersports Adapter # THXADAPT11 and you'd be set!

I reached out to my contact at Thule who confirmed that your estimated 500 lbs of weight will be safe to use with the Xsporter Pro. The 450 lb weight capacity is for when you are in motion and is called the dynamic weight capacity. Since you will be sitting still while the rooftop tent is in use the ladder rack can handle a little...

I have attached a review video of the Thule Xsporter for you.
view full answer... - Will the Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier Fit the Thule Xsporter Pro Ladder RackIn order to attach the Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier part # TH834 to the Thule Xsporter Pro Adjustable Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack part # TH500XT you will need the Watersports Adapter for Aeroblade/Aeroblade Edge Bars part # THXADAPT11. The Xsporter's crossbars are too large for the Hull-A-Port to wrap around which is why you need to use the Watersports Adapter because this converts the Hull-A-Port to mount using the track system.

This means that you do need to remove the ladder rack when you want to use your camper. The Invis-A-Rack can be taken on and off, but it would be pretty time-consuming and there is a height-adjustable ladder rack that is going to be much easier to take on and off,...
view full answer... - Recommended Thule Xsporter Ladder Rack And Kayak Carriers For A 2019 Ford Ranger 5 BedFor a 2019 Ford Ranger with a 5' bed you'll need the Thule Xsporter Pro Adjustable Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack - Black # TH500XTB or # TH500XT for Silver. As for the kayak carriers, I recommend the Malone FoldAway-5 Kayak, Canoe, and SUP Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # MAL38FR so that you can haul both kayaks with one carrier. These carriers have a clamp on design that can fit the 3-1/2" x 1-1/2" crossbars of the Thule Xsporter, and make for a fast and easy installation.

With a years use now on the racks, Ive been pleased with them. The C clamps have needed to be tightened once, maybe twice but I have used the racks many times and sometimes on some fairly rough roads.
