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.
Comments
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.
James N - 01/09/2019by: 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.

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

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.

Review from a similar Xsporter Pro Adjustable in Ladder Racks
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.

Review from a similar Xsporter Pro Adjustable in Ladder Racks
The Thule Xsporter Pro fits perfectly on my 2006 Tundra. Easy to install. Very study. I also want to mention the outstanding customer service provided by Samantha H at etrailer. She answered all my questions during the ordering process and kept me informed when product shipped. I received the product two days earlier than initially quoted.

Review from a similar Xsporter Pro Adjustable in Ladder Racks
Thule bars are well made and install easily. Look great on my 2022 Tacoma...just ensure you get the additional install kit for the Toyota track system. AT the time of purchase no was sure if the TracOne adapter kit would work...it does. On the negative side....The cross bars were dimpled from shipping as you can see in the photo. Good news is that etrailer customer service was able to arrange two new bars to be sent as replacement. Excellent customer service!

Review from a similar Xsporter Pro Adjustable in Ladder Racks
It was a HOT and sweaty install, but then I live in Kihei, HI where surfboards need a ride to the
beach! ALL the parts and pieces were there, very helpful. Measured, tested; made sure my truck would fit in the garage. After looking at dozens of options I was so glad I bought this.

See what our Experts say about this Thule Ladder Racks
- Can a Crossover Toolbox be Mounted with Thule Ladder Rack # TH500XT on a 2016 Ram 1500To use Thule ladder rack # TH500XT with a crossover toolbox you would have to move the front part of the ladder rack rearward on the bed so the area the toolbox needs is clear. There isn't a way to mount a toolbox on top of the ladder rack brackets.
view full answer... - Can Thule Xsporter Install on Bed Rails With CoversThe bed rail covers of your 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 can be left on when you install the Thule Xsporter part # TH500XT that you referenced. If you check out the install video I attached that also shows a 2016 Silverado you can see the covers are left on the bed rails.
view full answer... - Can Uprights of Thule Xsporter Ladder Rack be removed when Not in useYes you could take just the uprights off and leave the 4 bases on the truck for the Thule Xsporter Pro ladder rack # TH500XT. To do that you would have to remove the end caps from the bottoms of the uprights so they can be removed from the bases. I have included a link to a video review of this ladder rack for you.
view full answer... - What are the Dimensions of the Thule Xsporter Ladder Rack CrossbarsIf you mean the length of the bars from side to side on the Thule Xsporter ladder rack # TH500XT they are 72 inches. If you mean the width front to back of an individual bar they are 3-5/8 inches wide and 1-3/4 inches tall.
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... - Troubleshooting Thule Lock Cylinders That Will Not Operate on the Thule Xsporter Ladder RackI contacted Thule and they explained that you my need to try an lube the lock cylinder to see if you can get the locks to engage. Using a lubricant like WD-40, spray the key and then insert into lock. Turn the key a few times back and forth between the locked and unlocked positions. If this does not work, you could use your change key to remove the lock cylinder. Insert change key and turn in the unlock position try to wiggle the lock cylinder out. This will at least allow you to perform...

Thule does not show a product listing for a cantilever for its Xsporter Pro Truck Bed Ladder Rack, part # TH500XT. To double-check I spoke to my contact at Thule and confirmed that no cantilever is available. You might consider one of the other ladder racks we offer for your 2012 Tundra.

view full answer... - Ladder Rack Recommendations for a 1997 Chevy C/K 1500There are several ladder racks that are confirmed to fit your 1997 Chevy C/K Series Pickup such as the Thule Ladder Rack # TH500XT that you referenced. This rack will fit on short and long bed trucks and should work very well for you. I attached an installation video for this product also.

view full answer... - Will a Thule Ladder Rack Fit a 2010 Nissan Frontier with the Utili-Track SystemThe Thule ladder rack, # TH500XT, will only fit a 2010 Nissan Frontier as long as it is a Crew Cab model with a 6 foot bed and WITHOUT the Utili-Track system in the bed. With the track system it will not fit. Thule does not offer an adapter for the Frontier. For a different version of the truck take a look at the link I have provided to all of the ladder rack options for the 2010 Frontier. Use the drop down menu to select the proper configuration of your truck to see the correct options.

It is not listed as a fit for the King Cab. We do have ladder racks that will fit King Cab models but they will have to have a 6 foot bed and no Utili-Track system. I have linked them for you.
view full answer... - Ladder Rack Recommendation for a 2014 Toyota TundraI spoke with my contact at TracRac and she confirmed for me that all of the ladder racks that fit the 2013 Toyota Tundras carry over and fit the 2014 Tundras. If you have the deck rail system you would want the Thule Ladder Rack part # TH500XT.
view full answer... - Can Uprights on Thule Xsporter Pro Ladder Rack be Lifted Up and Out EasilyThere is a cap on the bottoms of each of the uprights that adjust up and down. You would need to unlock and remove the caps to take the uprights all the way out. I have included a picture showing what the caps look like when removed. So yes, you can easily remove the uprights when needed. I have also included a link to a video showing a typical installation for you.

view full answer... - Is there an Adapter to Use Thule Ladder Rack with a Crossover Toolbox on 2015 GMC SierraThere isn't a specific adapter to move the toolbox up over the mounting base of Thule ladder rack # TH500XT. But you could probably fabricate something to be able to mount the box and ladder rack the way you want to. You could probably bolt something to the bed of the truck, under the toolbox so that the box rests on it, raising it up some.
