• Wheel Step That Works With 2017 Ram 3500
  The Powerbuilt Adjustable Tire Step # ALL647596 may be an option as it is a universal mount which is going to fit any tire that is 13" wide or less. It is 21-1/2" long and has a weight capacity of 300 lbs. I also recommend taking a look at the Folding Wheel Step, # PT68ZR which is a universal mount that hangs on your tire and also fits any tire up to 13 inches wide. To determine if you can use these, you need to measure the width of your 28-inch diameter tires. If those don't work,...

• Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform Rack and Folding Ladder for 2018 Ford Expedition
  There is a way to add a Rhino Rack Platform to your 2018 Ford Expedition but there is not one that attaches directly to your vehicle. If your Expedition has factory installed rails that run front to back you can add a roof rack, the Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar # JB0190. From there you can add the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform # RR42115BF which is a universal mount that will attach to your Expedition's roof rack. I've attached a link to a video review of the universal mount Pioneer for you...

• Will the Wheel Step w/ Non-Slip Surface Fit a LT275/65R20 Tire?
  It sure will Gene! The Wheel Step with Non-Slip Surface item # PT68ZR is designed to fit tires up to 13" wide. It looks like your 2022 Ford F-350 came stock with LT275/65R20/E tires. Those measure 11" wide from the sidewall to sidewall so the Wheel Step item # PT68ZR will work great with your truck. The rear bracket that sits behind the tire will work with dually tire setups as well. It's narrow enough it'll fit inside the gap. The Wheel Step item # PT68ZRv has a 300 lbs capacity and...

• Lightweight Portable Step for Use with Thule Force Rooftop Cargo Box on Tall SUV
  You are correct that the size and weight of heavy-duty steps like # S-150 and # SASXLA-09C-G make them less than ideal for transport inside a rooftop cargo box like the Thule Force XT # TH6356B. Odds are if you are using a roof box you do not have space in the vehicle to store one of these steps. Handy as they are their best application is as an entry step for folks towing a large trailer such as a 5th wheel that has substantial cargo storage space built-in. But anyone using a rooftop...

• Options for Assisted Kayak Loading
  To answer your first question in regards to the Viking Solutions Rack Jack Magnum Hoist with Winch, # 310-VMH001, and "...pulling the supported load ... rather than vertically...". While an 85 lb. load may be successful, it has not been tested for that and is not the intended use. This is designed to support a vertical weight and pulling of the load over the vehicle does not allow the legs to provide support as intended. I do believe you can fabricate a mount to replace the winch with...

• How Long is the SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box # SR7018 Inside
  I went out to the warehouse and measured the inside of a SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box, item # SR7018, and the longest inside measurement is 60 inches. Your 63 inch skis would fit in the box if you laid them in diagonally but not straight front to back. You may be better off with a longer box. If so, the SportRack Horizon Cargo Box, item # SR7011, has a much longer inside dimension of 82-1/2 inches. Plenty of length for your skis, but not quite an equivelent amount of storage space as the...

• Compatibility of the HitchMate Tire Step on a 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek
  The HitchMate Tire Step, # HE4040, will fit a tire up to 12-1/2 inch wide tire. This measurement should not be an issue. The width of the step arm my be a issue for 2015 Subaru Crosstrek. The clearance between your tire and wheel well will need to be checked to see if the HitchMate will fit. The tubes on the step measures 22 inches wide. The tubes will have to fit around your tire and clear the wheel of your car for the step to be used on your Subaru. You will need to measure the width...

• Fit Of The Thule Force XT XXL Rooftop Cargo Box On 2013 GMC Acadia Factory Roof Rack
  The Thule Force XT XXL # TH6359B will fit most factory crossbars. It does require crossbars to be a maximum of 3-1/2 inches wide and maximum of 1-11/16 inches tall. The crossbar spread from center to center needs to be between 23-5/8 inch center to center and 37-1/2 inches. The clearance of your rear antenna depends on your roof rack itself. The Thule Force XXL will sit about flush with your factory crossbars so if your crossbars are higher than your antenna, you won't have an issue....

• How to determine if Roof Cargo Box will Fit a 2017 Ford Explorer with OEM Crossbars
  I can help you find a roof cargo carrier for your 2017 Ford Explorer, but you will need to do some measuring on your end to ensure it will fit and that the back hatch of your Explorer can completely open. The Thule Force XT # TH6359B is one of our most popular roof cargo boxes that we have to offer. It is a 22 cu ft box with about 84" of internal length and a weight capacity of 165 lbs (be sure to check the weight capacity of your OEM bars too). This box is compatible with a crossbar...

• Fit of SportRack Vista XL Roof Mount Cargo Box on 2011 Honda CRV
  The SportRack Vista XL Roof Mounted Cargo Box attaches to the factory crossbars using the supplied U-bolts. The U-bolts will accommodate cross bars up to 3-3/4 inches in diameter. The factory crossbars will also need to be 25-7/8, 27-7/8, or 29-7/8 inches apart. I would not recommend using any other method of attachment than the U-bolts supplied by the manufacturer. You should also consult your owner's manual to determine the weight capacity of the roof rack on your CRV. You might also...

• Easier Way to Access Fifth Wheel Hitch on Flatbed Truck
  There is no extension for a fifth wheel hitch handle to let you access it from a distance. The best solution for you would be to use something like the Wheel Step # PT68ZR, assuming your flatbed does not jut out over the tires too significantly. Otherwise, a simple step stool such as # TE97FR is your best option.

• Folding Wheel Step Compatible with 285/50R20 Wheels
  The Rhino-Rack Folding Wheel Step - Tire Mount - 22" Wide x 8" Deep - 250 lbs # RRRWS will not fit on your Lexus LX570 285/50R20 tires/wheels because they are simply too wide. The similar HitchMate TireStep Adjustable Step for SUVs, RVs and Light Trucks - 22" x 10" - 400 lbs # HE4040 or the Powerbuilt Adjustable Tire Step for SUVs, RVs, and Trucks - 300 lbs # ALL647596 is a fit based on your tire size.

• Will the Thule Motion Cargo Box Fit the Factory Roof Rack on a 2011 Buick Enclave
  Yes, the Thule Motion cargo box, # TH629706, is a fit for the factory crossbars on your 2011 Buick Enclave. I have included a link to a video review of this box being installed on a similar vehicle with a similar roof rack for you. I also recommend using a tire step, # PT68ZR, which will make accessing the box easier. Be sure to check the Enclave owner's manual and/or with Buick for the roof/roof rack weight capacity prior to loading.

  I have a couple options for you regarding a roof-top cargo carrier for your 2013 Honda Pilot and they all allow for the unimpeded opening of your rear hatch. Regarding a basket, I recommend the Thule Canyon # TH859XT. It measures 40 inches wide by 49 inches long by 6 inches tall. It has a maximum weight capacity of 150 lbs.

• Rhino-Rack Roof Rack, Basket, and Cargo Bag for 2011 Volkswagen Tiguan with Side Rails
  Roof rack manufacturers universal agree that you should not open the panoramic roof on your 2011 Volkswagen Tiguan with the crossbars installed. The issue is that the open roof could make contact with the bottoms of the bars and damage the roof and the bars. Also, the noise would likely be too much and you'd want it closed anyway. With that said on the Rhino-Rack roof rack bars # RRVA118B-2 and feet # RRSX022 the bottoms of the bars will be approximately 1 inch up from the tops of the...

  Yes, the Thule Pulse Large Rooftop Cargo Box # TH615 will absolutely fit the AeroBlade Edge crossbars on your 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee and be the perfect way for you to securely carry your cargo. I did check with Thule to confirm this fit for you. The Pulse does come with everything you need to mount it to your crossbars and uses a clamping system like in the photo I added to tightly grip your crossbars. If you go to the 0:35 mark of the video I linked of this box being installed on a...

• Bike Rack Options To Carry 4 Bicycles On My 2005 Volvo XC90
  The most amount of bikes you can carry with a trunk mounted bike rack on your 2005 Volvo XC90 is 3, as this is as much as your vehicle can handle safely. You would have to carry the other bike on the roof of your vehicle if you choose to use a trunk mounted bike rack. The item you selected, Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier, part # TH911XT, is compatible with your vehicle and would be a good option as it features anti-sway cradles. Another 3 bike trunk mounted bike rack I would recommend is...

• Recommended Trike Rack for a 2019 Lincoln MKC
  I have a great option for you to transport your JC26X tadpole-style recumbent trike, but I do not recommend using the Softride Hang2 2-Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # SR27041. Setting aside the potential issue of ground clearance hitch height with your hitch, the Softride Hang2 requires front handlebars to mount to the clamps at the top. Since we have not fitted a recumbent-style bike on the clamps there is no way to confirm whether the clamps will adequately secure at any point of...

• Recommended Cargo Box and Roof Rack for a 2003 Nissan Xterra
  If your 2003 Nissan Xterra has a factory rack that includes cross bars then the Thule Motion XT Cargo Box, item # TH629706, will work great on the roof of your vehicle. If your vehicle does not have factory cross bars you will need to install them. The Yakima Roof Rack for 2003 Nissan Xterra, item # Y00408, # Y03536, and # Y33TR would complete the roof rack for attachment of either of the above mentioned cargo boxes. You may want to consider the Tire Wheel Step item # PT68ZR, which is...

• What Cargo Box for 2011 Honda CR-V Fits Without Interfering with Rear Hatch or Antenna
  The SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box, part # SR7018, is an 18 cubic-foot cargo box that will fit many types of factory and aftermarket crossbars as long as they have a spread of 25-7/8-, 27-7/8- or 29-7/8-inches. However, my contact at Sportrack could not confirm whether this box will clear your roof-mounted antenna. It is possible that this will need to be removed when the box is mounted. To make certain, I pulled a sample from our warehouse and took measurements of the rear mounting bracket...

• Lock n Roll Tonneau Cover and Adarac Ladder Rack Compatibility For 2 Kayaks On A 2020 Silverado
  The Adarac Pro Series Ladder Rack # A4002965 has the rails sit over the stake pocket area of your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado's Bed Rails. Since the Lock N Roll Tonneau Cover doesn't cover up the stake pockets, it should fit on top of them. The rails will sit a little on top of your tonneau covers rails so it won't be completely flush but it will install. Now you can get two J-Style Kayak Carriers # e98878 so you can carry both of your kayaks. Our carrier is a very cost effective option,...

  The SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box, part # SR7018, will work with your 2012 GMC Acadia if the crossbars are no more than 3-3/4 inches in diameter. You will need to measure the existing roof side rails on your Acadia to ensure that they are the correct spread, 25-7/8, 27-7/8, or 29-7/8 inches apart. You should also consult your owner's manual to determine the weight capacity of the roof rack on your Acadia. Check out the video review of this cargo box I have included. You might also take...

• Roof Basket Recommendation For 2009 Chevrolet Suburban
  The Surco Safari Rack, part # SPS5084-1101, will fit on your roof rack. This basket measures 84 in long by 50 in wide by 5 in deep, is made of sturdy aluminum, and weighs approximately 40 lbs. This basket comes with the adapters that clamp around the factory raised rails. I also recommend a tire step like part # PT68ZR. This easily slips over the wheel of your vehicle and allows you to reach the cargo on your roof. It also folds flat for easy storage.
