Hi everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com Let's take a real quick look at this Thule Replacement Mounting Strap With Buckle. Now this is going to replace one mounting strap for the Sports Rack Explorer Cargo Box. And for your reference, on your screen, I do have the model number of that cargo box that this strap is going to work with. And as you know, this tightens with the integrated buckle in your cargo box, and this strap is one inch wide and it's about forty and three quarters inches long. And as you can see, it's black in color, and this strap is exactly like the one that you are needing to replace.
This is the direct replacement from Thule. So what that means for you is you're not gonna have to worry about compatibility issues, fitment issues, or anything like that. So if you are needing to replace one mounting strap for your Sports Rack Explore Cargo Box, this is going to be exactly what you need. That's gonna conclude our real quick look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you.
Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
Perfect fit for my old era sears xcargo box that had the straps and rotted away.
As advertised !
I bought four of these to replace the original cotton straps that came with my X-Cargo roof top carrier. The originals tore/broke when the we had an "abrupt stop" with another vehicle. These are heavier and a synthetic fabric that has held up well with rain, snow, and ice. The "pod" is used regularly (on a new van) for family and Scout trips, and is removed when not used. I would recommend an extra over-the-top cinch or ratchet strap on any brand roof carrier. Belt AND suspenders kept ours on the roof.
My VERY old Sears X CARGO carrier needed new straps to replace the rotted worn originals. This is not something I expected to find available and thought I'd need to re configure the tie down. etrailer had the very obscure product (in stock no less). My only issue was delivery window and I had to pay an extra $10 to expedite the shipping to get them. But browsing the website was insightful and saw there was a lot they carried that might otherwise be hard to find elsewhere.

Once received, I attached these new straps to my X-Cargo and made the cross country relocation move without a problem. These straps were an exact replacement match for the originals. Have not had the need to use the carrier since but expect continued satisfaction for years to come, when and if I do.
I ´ m very satisfaisant

The straps I ordered were exactly what I needed. I am thankful that Etrailer has the ability to stock this obscure item. Your site was the only one that I found this specific item. The straps were used to secure an obsolete car carrier to the roof rack of our van. The straps got a road test of almost 3000 miles on our vacation. Thank you for stocking these straps. God bless!
The straps arrived safely and on time. Excellent service, excellent product.
My husband has yet to try them on our old Sears car top Snail -- the straps to which shredded several years ago -- but he eye-balled them and believes that they will work fine. We're grateful that they are not thick, that they seem the same thickness of the old ones.
Perfect. Rather than buy a new car carrier, we bought new straps for the old one. A good deal.
Works great! We take a couple 14 hour trips a year and these straps hold our snail on our car securely and withstand weather great after one year of having them.

Still going strong!
Straps were the exact width required for the Escargot (sears) roof top baggage carrier from the 80s. Length of straps were more than adequate.
Thanks
We got these straps to replace the disintegrating ones on our Sears X-Cargo. These work perfectly - very sturdy and fit perfectly as a replacement. I think these would be great for any 1" car top carrier strap as a replacement and we were so glad we didn't have to make our own or replace with a different type of attachment system.
Ordered two different options for my old Explorer car topper to attach it to my SUV.
Both ended up working. Jennifer from etrailer was very helpful with the order and suggestions for what I should order.
I'm going to use both fasteners for my topper to make sure it is secure.
Thank you Jennifer for also sending me the instructions to attaching both items.
Great working with you.

I just got these replacement buckle straps for my Sears Cargo carrier. They look good and sturdy. I did notice they are stitched not riveted like the original but it's sturdy stitching. Will be testing them this weekend on my coming trip but should be good to go. Shipping was quick and customer service seems very attentive. Will shop here again for sure.
The replacement mounting strap for my seers cargo X carrier was exactly what I needed. It was the same type of strap that came with the original carrier. I never thought I would find it because it’s a very Old carrier. Thank you.
I haven't had a chance yet to actually use the straps on the road, but I did attach them to my car top carrier and they seem very good, from the straps to the latches. Delivery was quick. All seems well.
The straps were perfect, I had located an old Sears car top carrier but it had no straps. Etrailer to the rescue, thank you so much.
So far i have made several orders with etrailer and have nothing to say than Extremely satisfied with both the products and the extremely fast, efficient services etrailer provides online. Will always recommend etrailer.
Straps work perfectly with our old school rooftop carrier. Definitely recommend
These were perfect to replace the rotting straps on the older Sears Xcargo car topper I purchased second hand. Held the topper secure for our entire trip. Reasonably priced and arrived on time.
I am very thankful for your company. Several years ago I bought a carrier for deer hunting and it is still like new, Recently I was able to buy straps from you for a roof carrier that I also bought many years ago. Your company sells quality at an excellent price. Thanks again!
The straps worked perfectly on my Sears X-Cargo car-top carrier.
delivered on time and exactly what I was looking for....quallity item
I needed 4 new straps for an old Road Rider Kar Rite roof top carrier - and these worked perfectly. Thanks!
The product I ordered came in just one day late from USPS, but etrailer kept me posted the whole time. Just what I ordered, thanks.
The straps appear to be nice and strong. Brand new without flaws or damage. I feel like it took awhile for the products to be sent out.
they seem an excellent replacement for my worn out straps

One year later: still going good. I wrap the extra material length of strap around the buckled part to stop the reed effect of the strap at highway speeds.
