When you're carrying heavy gear like kayaks, cargo boxes, or camping equipment, you need a rack that can take the weight. This setup has a 165-lb weight capacity and is built from aluminum for a solid, reliable base. The sturdy construction keeps your load stable on highways and bumpy backroads, so you can focus on the trip instead of worrying about what’s on top.
Wind noise can get annoying fast when you’re driving long distances with a roof rack. The aero-style crossbars cut through the air to reduce drag, while split rubber strips in the top channels help minimize wind noise and vibration. The strips close back around your mounted gear, keeping things quiet and smooth mile after mile.
Whether you’re hauling bikes, skis, or a cargo box, these bars are ready for it all. The top channels let you easily slide in channel-mount accessories—no trimming required—and they also work with clamp-on mounts. That means your existing carriers or future add-ons will fit without any hassle.
You get everything you need for a secure installation on flush rails—two 60" WingBar Evo crossbars, four Evo Flush Rail feet, and a custom fit kit designed for your setup. Once mounted, it gives you a clean, integrated look that feels like it belongs there.
For extra peace of mind, the rack is compatible with Thule One-Key System locks (sold separately). With that upgrade, you can lock both the rack and your mounted accessories using a single key—simple protection for when your vehicle’s parked overnight or at the trailhead.

Hi, everyone, it's Evangeline right here at etrailer. Today we have the Thule roof rack with some extra long crossbars, and we're gonna take a look at how it fits and I'll also show you how to get it all installed on the 2024 Jeep Wagoneer L. Now this is a fit kit that can fit your other Wagoneer models. Double-check our website to make sure this will fit yours. But if you're looking for a great way to carry all kinds of fun accessories, whether it's a rooftop tent, some kayaks, some bike racks, this is gonna be a great way to start. I'm actually really excited about this fit kit because this is a combination that I put together for the Wagoneer L.
Your Wagoneer is gonna be a really tall, really large vehicle. Awesome for most situations, except for when you have to lift things up and onto the roof. So this is gonna have the extra long crossbars. We have 60 inch bars here, the WingBar Evos, and we combine that with the flush rail towers and the custom-fit kit for a whole kit that works together for your Wagoneer. This kit is also available in the 53 inch bar version, which is gonna be a bit shorter, if you wanna sleeker look.
But if you ask me, just go ahead and get the 60 inch long bars. That way you have more space for more things, for more adventures. This secures to the flush rails of your Wagoneer, and there's actually two bolts in the back that each bracket bolts onto, which is why it's pretty important to use our fit guide right here at etrailer. You put your year, make, model on top, and then we give you all the different roof racks that are confirmed fits for your vehicle. So make sure you get that correct mounting spot.
Now, real quick before we move on, some people ask me if this follows the Jeep's standards of give you an extra spot for a third bar in the back. Technically, yes. If you want to put three crossbars on your roof, you can. Now Thule doesn't offer the three-fit kit, but we can get you two-fit kits for four bars, and you can figure out something that works that way. If you have any questions on how things fit or how to just really customize your whole system, whether you want the longer bar or the shorter bar, also feel free to give us a call.
We love helping you out with all kinds of different fun ways to get out on those different journeys. So how much clears are you gonna get with this roof rack on the Wagoneer Well, if we measure from our roof, whether it's by the top or bottom of the ridges, there's gonna be a lot. So I'm measuring around 4 1.4 inches of height, plenty of space for all kinds of clamps. Even if you have those old-fashioned roof boxes with a large U-bolts, this is gonna have space for that. As we're on top where your cargo sits, that's gonna be about 5 1/2 inches. Again, a lot of height. So let's say you have skis or snowboards with extra large bindings, chances are you are gonna have clearance for those bindings, you're not gonna be scratching up the roof, but this measurement might be helpful for you because in case you do need more height, you can go ahead and grab some accessories here at each trailer that give you some extra height, like those special skiing snowboard carriers. As for crossbar spread, that's gonna be measured from the center of one bar to the center of the other. For us, that's gonna be 29 inches. This measurement's pretty important for carrying around roof boxes, roof baskets, sometimes ski and snowboard carriers. 29 inches is pretty average for crossbar spread. Very versatile, will fit most of your accessories, but there's a measurement for you to double-check. Some premium Thule things are that this is gonna be made of some really strong aluminum. If you flip this end cap over, you can just see the thickness of the bar. This is also where you could technically mount T-track-mounted accessories. I have T-track-mounted accessories. I usually take the wind strips out because splitting them apart sometimes catches things, but then you can always push 'em right back in, and this will help reduce wind noise. This end cap just covers everything for a nice and neat look. Thule also has some really strong towers, where these are gonna be the towers that hold up the hold system. You can purchase locks that are sold separately if you want something that uses a metal key. And then they have this really thick rubber base. So the base goes over your flush rail system, but this utilizes two metal clamps to clamp into the flush rails in the back. So everything works together for a really strong and sturdy system. Even when you have your heavier roof tents or kayaks up here, this is definitely a brand that a lot of people rely on because of their durability. Thule is a premium brand with a premium price. While you might be wondering why they tend to have a high price tag for their roof racks, the reasoning for that is because they've done roof racks for a very long time and they've really mastered their art, especially this one for the flush rail system on the Wagoneer. This is gonna be one of the easiest roof rack installs that I've done with that system, even though I'm anchoring to fixed mounting points. And if you're curious about that process, we'll get into the installation in a second. But first, I would really like you to consider which crossbar length you need the most for your adventures. Because if you have longer bars, that's gonna be more bar space, as well as less distance you're gonna have to reach onto your roof to load things on. But then it also takes up more space on your roof and may look a little bulkier. So, if you want a more sleek look, there is some really good WingBar Edge crossbars that look lit really good and are installed on this vehicle if you wanna check that video out. But if you want more space, as well as more crossbar capacity, that's where these 60 inch bars may come in handy. Now I kept talking about that install process. Let's go take a look. To get everything installed, it might seem a little confusing at first 'cause there's a bunch of different parts and different things and bolts, and that's okay. I'm gonna guide you through that process. It's pretty straightforward once you know what you're doing. And remember, this process is gonna be the same, whether you have a Wagoneer, Wagoneer L, and wherever on the roof you wanna install your roof rack. Now the very first thing I like to do is set up the roof on the vehicle, and that's gonna involve installing the brackets onto your flush rails. Up top, you're going to have caps covering your bolt holes. So they're just gonna be plastic caps. You can use a flat head screwdriver or a pry tool to just pry those out. Once those are out, you can then attach your metal bracket. so see how that bracket fits on over your system. There will be a gap up top, but your main focus here is just lining that bracket up with the holes. Secure that bracket with your included security bolts. So these are gonna have just a special end to them, where you need to use the included Allen key to tighten them down. And there's not that much space on the roof for these bolts, so just be careful as you tighten these down to not scratch things up. There are wind strips included with your crossbar, so make sure to install those at some point during your install. These are just gonna be rubber strips that push down two separate pieces, and you're gonna want the arrow facing the wide or tall part of the tower, and then you want the flat piece towards the tapered edge. If there's excess wind strip, you can just go ahead and cut that end off with some scissors. Today we are using our 60 inch bars, but this process will be the exact same if you're doing the 53 inch bars. And we're going to be using the flush rail kit as well as the custom-fit kit. So first go grab in your tower and insert those towers into your crossbar. We're then going to set up the towers with a hook and a rubber pad. Get the clamps that say A, and they're gonna have that fun shape like that. That shape is designed to fit right into your towers. And then you're gonna hold those clamps in place using the rubber pads. So the rubber pads will, see there's tabs on them, fit right into the tower, clipping into those little matches, and hold your first clamp in place. Once you've installed all four towers, secure them in place using your WingBar Evo end caps. (plastic clacking) Those just pop into place. And then now, we're going to grab our C-clamps, our torque tool, as well as our tower caps, and we're gonna take our crossbar to the roof. Remember those brackets you installed earlier Well, your towers are going to sit on top of those brackets. Now some things to note here is make sure that your crossbars are facing the right way. You want the taller portion facing front, the tapered end facing back. Also, since your end caps are on there, those should hold the towers in place and prevent them from sliding off during this process. If you're a little nervous about it, definitely grab a second person to grab the tower on the other hand to make sure nothing falls off. You are then going to want to measure so you can have the same amount of crossbar on each end. I measured mines be about four inches from the tower to right before the end cap, and then you're gonna secure that spot with your hook. So the hook fits into that lip of that first hook. See how that C-hook goes in And then you're going to secure that by using these tower caps. The tower caps thread into that bolt back there. Might be a little tricky lining it up with that bolt, but just keep working away at it until you get that thread started. Now you're then going to use your included Thule tool to continue tightening down that bolt, and this is gonna be a torque wrench set to four newton meters. So go ahead and tighten those bolts down until your tool clicks, and then make sure all four towers click too. Now cap them all off with your tower cover. And these come with plastic locks that can be turned with a flathead screwdriver. If you purchase the metal lock cores, which are sold separately, you can switch that out here right now, and that will make sure all your Thule items are keyed-alike. That's available here on our website if you're interested about that. But with all four towers secured, all our crossbars secured, give it a good old shake to make sure everything is nice and tight. That's gonna be it for your install. You are not ready to load this up with all kinds of fun accessories and hit the road. Hopefully this video just guided you through the process of installing this roof rack, and it is pretty straightforward once you get to it. But today, what you saw was the Thule roof rack system with a longer crossbars, the 60 inch WingBar Evos, the tower kit for flush rails, and the custom-fit kit for your 2024 Jeep Wagoneer L. My name is Evangeline, and I hope you enjoyed this journey.
Ratings & Reviews
etrailer.com was excellent to do business with. Their website is informative, complete and easy to navigate. Phone service to help confirm availability of my product and their general knowledge of their products was impressive. Product arrived on time and in good shape. Their order tracking system is also very good. I’m very pleased with the Thule Wingbar Evo 135 racks For my BMW X5 with flush roof rails. They are super sturdy, solidly mounted and look good on the vehicle. Mine will be mainly used for surfboards and SUP’s. The assembly and installation was a breeze. The included written instructions would have been sufficient for a seamless installation but I also watched one of many YouTube videos that demonstrated very clearly every step of assembly and installation for this specific set of racks.
Love the racks!! I highly recommend etrailer.com for your roof rack needs.
what can one say. etrailer has the best products at the best prices, great customer service with actual people that answer the phone and actually know what the heck they're talking about. My product was even delivered sooner than it was supposed to be. Sounds like a perfect business plan to me!
I ordered the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Silver - 50" with the Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars - Flush Side Rails and the Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Rail and Edge Flush Rail Roof Rack Feet for my 2020 Mazda CX9. I appreciated the product selector to make sure I was getting all the correct parts. I was happy with the products, but I did run into an issue where 1 of the rail feet had a defective bolt which required a replacement. I was very satisfied with etrailer's customer support, and how well they worked with me to get the part replaced quickly. I'm giving this a 4 start only because of the hassle of receiving a defective one initially
Rock Solid and good looking. Expensive but worth it!
The whole experience was freakin awesome.
* Ordered on-line, delivered when promised, all packages were in excellent condition, and all parts were accounted for - no shortages, THANK YOU!
* The Thule roof rack design, quality of materials, comprehensive instructions were really impressive. Everything went together without a hitch and really looks good installed.
* We plan on carrying our 12 1/2' SUP's on the roof rack when we head out to the lakes.
* It saves us time as our SUP's are inflatable, however it takes a bit of time to pump them up once we get there. Now it's just loosen them up and we're ready to go.
Great job etrailer, I would definitely buy more products from your organization!!
I just installed these on my 2015 Odyssey's side rails.
Easy-peasy to install and appears to be quite solid.
Just not sure how tight I need to screw them.
It only took me 30 minutes to assemble and install the Crossroad feet with the 60" WingBar EVO. It will probably take me 10 minutes to move to another vehicle.
I chose the Crossroads for the ease of installation so I can switch them between our two Odysseys. When loosened for removal they also loosen the crossbar (60" WingBar EVO) which makes it so much easier to switch to a vehicle with a different width requirement.
Fits that requirement perfectly.
Will be loading the canoe on top this coming weekend. Looking forward to using these.
Sturdy bars. The rubber strip gasket eventually became loose and flew off down the highway. Options available to use metal locks w/ key, instead of the plastic locks.
Easy to fit into the feet that are sold separately. No clue why the rubber strip just can't come already attached but it only takes a minute or two to put them on. Make sure before tightening the feet, the bars are even.
Thule makes great products
And etrailer makes it too easy to get when needed.
Just insralled the racks and J-Bars. Easy install, worked exactly as wanted. To out on freeway witth racks only, just some wind noise at 70. This is my second order thru etrailer. Both orders were great referrals, worked good, delivered witnin a few days. Thank you etrailer.
Very pleased with order. Shipped fast, not damaged, all parts accounted for. Easy install, very sturdy, and attractive design. Slight wind noise but that was expected compared to not having a roof rack.
Great rack design. Fit my truck like a glove and holds two kayaks with no issues. I’m planning on installing a fish rod holder in between both kayaks.
The product quality seems great, and fit my Jeep Wrangler without having to do any drilling, or semi-permanent mounting of overly obtrusive cage type rack system. Tried mounting my Kayak on top and it seems like it's going to work for what I wanted it for. I especially like the fact that I can easily take the whole system off with ease as I would typically leave it on only in the summer.
Easy to assemble and install. Love the way etrailer packages everything you need and they all are correct for the vehicle you are mounting them on. Once installed they appear very strong. Installed on a 2023 Chevy Tahoe and did not interfere with the sunroof.
Great product that compliments the look of my vehicle while serving a function. Initially, the product arrived missing some key parts, but the staff responded immediately to my email and took great care of me to ensure that my experience was completely satisfactory. Carol and Kelsey are truly attentive to the customer’s needs. Great job everyone!
Excellent crossbars for my 2020 JLU with sky top. Quality construction and I really like the swivel end caps to allow quick access to get things channel mounted quickly.
I’ve had it on my 2021 Kia Telluride now for a few months and it works great. When I was mounting the forward bar, I opened the sun roof to make sure I was comfortable with the roof window and bar clearance.
Thule has great quality and trailer is a great place to order from, highly recommend both!
Thule Rack looks awesome on my Kia Telluride. Products took a while to get to me because they were on backorder but it's not etrailer, they were on backorder everywhere. I messed up one of the pieces of rubber while installing and etrailer sent me a new one at no charge. Definitely recommend etrailer.
Website is easy to use & is better at putting together the correct package than Thule’s site.
etrailer had all the parts in stock for my 2020 Kia Telluride.
Payment process was simple.
Received periodic updates from staffer on my order & could actually reply if needed.
Installing the roof rack went well. Estimate start to finish was about 2 hours. Found it best to really examine each diagram in Thule’s step by step instructions to get it all right on the first try.
Hardness part of the installation was getting the crossbars installed at the proper distances. A tailor’s soft measuring tape & some masking were great aids.
It took me a VERY long time to figure out what I needed to mount my Hullivator on my 22 Subaru Outback Limited. I bought the wrong parts on round 1, and finally after 2 yrs of frustration, asked AI what I needed. I don't entirely trust AI, but it got me on the right track. I asked the 'chat' person on etrailer about the AI suggestion, and the gal who helped me, Autumn, said the feet part was correct, but to use these feet and the TH37CE fit kit. I ordered immediately. Today was the day. Of note, the fit kit has specific parts for the front and rear passenger and front and rear driver side. Pay attention to the photo directions. The parts are different for each side. On my Outback, they mount at 69cm apart on the Subaru rails (folded in) on the Thule Wingbar Evo 55" bars. The cladding and design of the Outback roof system leaves much to be desired, but this worked and I'm looking forward to FINALLY using my Hullivator.
