Installation of a Thule Professional Ladder Rack Tilt


This works with the professional series ladder rack. To install the ladder tilt, what we have to do is disassemble a couple parts of the rack thats on your vehicle. What happens here is this rubber strip gets taken off and these ladder holders get taken off, they get replaced by the ladder tilt. The next piece that has to come off only temporarily is the end cap. We put this back on when we install the ladder tilt. This is the completed ladder tilt, it slides onto the track. This one rides on the top track and this one rides with a special bolt on the side track, then it just slides into place. Once its in place we can put our end cap back on. Then this whole assembly gets slid all the way to the end. You have a little adjustment left or right obviously. Start at the end and tighten down these bolts here. When youre finished with this one, repeat the process for the other rack.

To show the operation of this unit, basically you unlock it by pushing this latch over, then you pull this out and it tilts down. Thats how a ladder is typically loaded up, of course its different depending on which ladder you have. Basically thats how you use it. There you have it for part # TH339 the ladder tilt from Thule, part of their professional series.
