Product was correct and arrived on time. I do think that the shipping charge was a little high, but otherwise good business to work with.

Review from a similar Xadapt in Accessories and Parts
Used to mount a bike carrier onto my 2020 Tesla Model Y roof rails. The carrier was an older Mini-branded model and had bolts with heads that were too wide for the Tesla roof rail tracks. These adapters did the trick.

Review from a similar Xadapt in Accessories and Parts
I used the XADAPT2 kit to convert my Thule Bigmouth bike carriers to fit the OEM Volkswagen cross bars on my 2016 Jetta sedan. The bike carriers originally had clamps to fit the Thule square cross bars, and this kit allowed me to convert the carriers to fit in the T-slots of the VW cross bars. The kit was originally designed for older VWs, but the T-slot dimensions have not changed for the modern VW cross bars. I would venture to guess that the kit should work for the OEM cross bars of any modern VW rather than just the Jetta, since the VW bike carriers are not model specific. A great quality kit, and perfect for my application!

Review from a similar Xadapt in Accessories and Parts
I used this to fit an old (1994) Thule Big Mouth bike rack to a factory 1994 VW Jetta Votex roof rack. The bike rack was originally fitted to a Thule square tube rack. Fits perfect, but has many extra parts. The only parts that were needed my me were 3 square plastic tabs and 3 of the "T" bolts, so there are many left overs, but for the price I don't think I can complain much. I'm glad the kit was available.
Instructions were pretty useless.

Very good quality product with a little problem. Track is connected to a bracket by one bolt and the bolt was getting loose. I had to buy a little bit longer bolt, use a spring washer and washer, problem solved. See picture. Assembly instructions could be better.

Adapter works perfectly on 2020 Audi Q5 (VW) But didn’t need all the xtra hardware for Thule Big Mouth bike rack. (Ca 2003) . 3 of the short bolts per unit did the trick and of course the rubber inlays to prevent scratching and rattling are perfect.

Review from a similar Xadapt in Accessories and Parts
Well, if you rely strictly on the Thule instructions, you're in for a real treat. I would actually claim it would be nearly impossible to install your 599XTR on aerobars using just those instructions. I ended up looking up some accompanying videos online to assist with my conceptualization of the install process. Once I figured it out, it was VERY easy to install the adapter kit and the 599XTR Wide Mouths. Nice engineering.

Yeah, top notch item. You guys are my go-to for anything rack and trailer related, for sure.

Had everything I needed to convert a THule Big Mouth Bike carrier made for square cross bars to fit Thule Aeroblade cross bars with parts to spare. The directions seem to be for some other conversion, but it's not hard to figure out what to do for this conversion.

Emailer provided amazing customer service for a product that cost much less than the competition. They emailed me to confirm the order when i placed it, again when it was shipped, and then today to verify that the order was delivered. Delivery was fast and well-wrapped. This was a great purchase experience.

Review from a similar Xadapt in Accessories and Parts
I had trouble finding carriage bolts that would work for my Thule kayak cradle on Amazon and many other popular sites. After toying with search key words in Google, I finally stumbled upon eTrailer's link to these 80mm carriage bolts. Their product selection made it a simple choice as to where I would make my purchase. The bolts needed to be of a m6 diameter, which is extremely difficult to find in traditional brick and mortar stores. After receiving the product and using them on my kayak cradle, I find them to be a perfect fit for my needs and feel extremely comfortable with them to hold my equipment steady.

The product (Xadapt8) was just what I needed. Shipping was very fast, under 3 days. I have the Thule Aeroblade roof rack system and needed these in order to mount the Criterium bike rack.

The XADAPT8 works as promised. Super easy installation of a Thule Criterium rack on Mini factory rails. The mount feels rock solid.

Quite well...the larger bolts were needed for kayak racks due to a different roof rack design. It worked out great and continues to do so.

Product quality is good. The manuals are terrible, leaving you with a lot of trial and error. etrailer sent one of the XADAPT2 packages completely open (plastic package without staples). Luckily, none of the small parts were lost, but could have definitely happened. Fast shipping and delivery.

- Will I need Thule Xadapt Part THXADAPT7 for the Factory Rack on my 2000 Subaru LegacyAs long as the cross bars on your factory rack are not wider than 2-3/4 inches and are not more than 1 inch thick, the rack should bolt on fine. The adapter you were looking at is for a certain type of Thule adjustable cross bars.
view full answer... - Solution for Installing Thule 726 Ski Rack on Larger Roof Rack CrossbarsI may have a solution for you, however the Thule Fat Mouth Bar adapters are no longer available from the manufacturer. If you are just needing to adapt your existing Thule Ski Rack to mount onto larger crossbars, I recommend adding the Thule Xadapt7 Xsporter Load Bar Adapter # THXADAPT7. This adapter is confirmed to work with the model 726 Ski Rack that you have and will allow it to mount to your larger roof rack crossbars.
view full answer... - Thule Xadapt7 Xsporter Load Bar Adapter for Ski Rack Bolt LengthThe overall length of the Thule Xadapt7 Adapter # THXADAPT7 is 2-1/16 inches and without the head is 1-15/16 inches.

- Will the Thule Circuit XT Fit My Factory Crossbars on My 2020 Subaru Forester?I confirmed with my contact at Thule that the discontinued Thule Circuit XT Fork Mount Carrier Bike Rack will fit on your Subaru Forester 2020 Aero Crossbars if the thickness of the crossbars measures at or less than 1-1/4 inches. As far as the height of the crossbars, the Thule Circuit XT fits most styles of crossbar heights. However, if you are concerned about the crossbar height on your 2020 Subaru Forester, you can purchase longer bolts with Thule Adapter Kit # THXADAPT7.
view full answer... - How To Use Thule FlatTop Ski Carrier with Thule Evo WingBar CrossbarsThe Thule Xadapt7 Xsporter Load Bar Adapter for Ski Racks part # THXADAPT7 is our best option for reusing a Thule Flat-Top Ski Carrier 91725B with taller crossbars like the Thule WingBar. These are 2" tall.
view full answer... - Will the Thule Flat Top Ski Carrier 724 Work On Volvo CrossbarsThe Thule Flat Top Ski Carrier 724 works with crossbars up to 1-1/8" tall x 3-3/4" wide. I don't have any specs on the factory Volvo crossbars but if they meet these guidelines then it will fit. If the factory Volvo crossbars are over 1-1/8" which is rather likely then you can purchase the Thule Xadapt7 Xsporter Load Bar Adapter for Ski Racks part # THXADAPT7. In summary, the Thule Flat Top Ski Carrier 724 should work with factory crossbars no problem if you get the Thule Xadapt7 Xsporter...

Unfortunately, from the pictures alone, he could not identify the specific rack. However, he did say that the Mounting Kit for Thule Flat Top Rooftop Ski and Snowboard Racks # 7533998 works for most older Thule ski/snowboard carriers when trying to apply to factory or aftermarket crossbars. It is important to note that these mounting clamps will only fit crossbars up to 3-3/4 inches wide....

- What Size Roof Rack Will The Thule Flat Top 724 Ski Rack Fit With Universal Mounting Kit # 7533998?The Thule Flat Top 724 Ski Rack will fit a cross bar up to 3-3/4" wide and 1-1/8" tall with the Mounting Kit # 7533998. If your factory cross bars on your 2017 BMW 328 are taller than 1-1/8" you will need the Thule Xadapt7 # THXADAPT7.

It will work fine with the Short Roof Adapter # TH477. I confirmed this with my contact at Thule.

However, that doesn't mean the hardware to connect your Thule products will not work anyway. But you'll want to measure to make sure first. I went out and measured the adapters that are made for your Criterium which are # XADAPT8. The head is 3/4 inch square and 1/8 inch thick. The shaft of the long bolt is 2-3/8 inches long and the shaft of the short bolt is 1-3/8 inches long. See the picture I've...

- Will the Thule Flat Top Ski and Snowboard Carrier fit Factory Crossbars on a 2004 Hummer H2According to the Thule Fit Guide, the Thlue Flat Top Ski and Snowboard Carrier, part # TH7326 should fit just fine onto the factory cross bars. I have added a link to the installation instructions below. If your cross bars measure 2 inches by 4 inches, the THXADAPT7 bolt kit will probably be needed.

The part you need to transfer the carrier is the Mounting Kit for Thule Flat Top Rooftop Ski and Snowboard Racks 725 # 7533998. It is important to note that these will only fit on crossbars up to 3-3/4 inches wide. I recommend measuring your crossbars to make sure they fit within these dimensions. If you discover you have...

According to what you sent in it looks like you have one of the discontinued Thule Flat Top (TH91724 or TH91725) or Pull Top (TH91726) carriers. These came with universal mounting hardware as well as an adapter for the square bars which it sounds like that's what you were using. You can try upgrading the mounting to the Replacement 20 mm SpeedLink # 7521241002 but you may need to modify the carrier since this mounting kit wasn't designed for...

- Adapter for Thule Flat Top Ski Carrier TH91725 On 2019 Subaru Outback Factory Roof RackI can completely understand not wanting to get a whole new ski rack, and while there isn't a conversion kit for a Thule Flat Top Ski Carrier TH91725, we may have the part you are referencing. The Thule Xadapt7 Xsporter Load Bar Adapter for Ski Racks # THXADAPT7 are a fit for this carrier and are longer bolts which are designed to work on roof racks with bars that have thicker crossbars. These bolts will replace the standard bolts that make the Flat Top carrier fit. If that adapter is...
view full answer... - Will Thule Flat Top Ski Carrier Fit on Square Bars?It really depends in the dimensions of the bars. For the Thule AirScreen XT Fairing # TH82WV it simply clips around bars and is a universal fit, so there should be no issue there. The Thule Flat Top was replaced by the Thule SnowPack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # TH7324, so when you're ready to upgrade, these are the ones to upgrade to. As for compatibility of your Thule Flat Top Ski Rack when using the mounting kit # 7533998, this fits crossbars up to 1-1/8" tall x 3-3/4" wide. If your...
view full answer... - Replacement Clamps for Older Thule Ski RacksThis will depend on the specific model you have. If you have the older PullTop Deluxe (Made between 2000 and 2006), or Flat Top (made between 1996 and 2006), you'll want part # 853-2156. These are easily identifiable as they have either a square clamp-on box or no attached parts on the bottom of the carrier. If you're missing the carriage bolt, you'll need part # 915-0650-54 to replace it. You can also convert this kit to a Universal Mount with the required parts for newer, post 2006...
