The Thule Canyon XT cargo basket allows you to easily transport a wide range of gear on your vehicle's roof. It maximizes your vehicle's cargo carrying capacity and keeps dirty and damp gear outside of the vehicle. A built-in fairing reduces drag and wind noise, and the mounting hardware is adjustable to accommodate different crossbar spreads. The included 20" extension piece allows you to adjust the basket length as needed.


Aerodynamic, Low-Profile Design

Thule Canyon with Extension and Fairing

The low-profile Canyon XT is wedge-shaped and aerodynamic. A wind fairing attaches to the front of the basket to help redirect air up and over the basket. This helps to reduce drag and wind noise. And the side walls are tapered for easy loading.


Easy Installation

Installed Thule Canyon with Extension

The basket has universal mounting hardware that fits most crossbar styles, and the hardware adjusts to accommodate most crossbar spreads.


Adjustable Mounting Hardware

You can position the hardware anywhere along the bottom of the basket to match your crossbar spread. The hardware easily clamps to basket's bottom rails.


U-Bolts & Hand KnobsInstalled U-Bolts

To install the basket, simply align the included U-bolts under your crossbars and use the hand knobs to tighten them to the mounting hardware. The system includes 3 sets of U-bolts to accommodate most crossbar sizes.


You can also mount the basket directly into your crossbar's top channels using the included T-bolts. Just slide the T-bolts into the crossbar top channels and use the hand knobs to tighten them to the mounting hardware.


Removable Extension

Thule Canyon Basket with Extension

This basket comes with an extension that allows you to customize the length of the basket depending on your needs.


Thule Canyon Basket with Extension

You can bolt all 3 pieces together to create a long basket to carry kayak paddles and other long cargo. To install the extension, loosen the bolts on the bottom of the basket with the included Allen wrench and remove the front of the basket. Slide the ends of the extension into the bars of the basket and re-secure the front of the basket to the extension.


Thule Canyon Basket without Extension

Or simply bolt the front and rear pieces together leaving out the 20" extension to create a standard size basket for bags, camping gear, and other compact cargo.

See what our Experts say about this Thule Roof Basket

  • Using Kayak Carrier Along With Thule Canyopn Rooftop cargo Basket TH859XT
    Thule does not offer any kayak carrier accessory that can be fitted to their Canyon rooftop cargo basket # TH859XT. I called my most well-seasoned Thule contact and she confirmed no such product is on the drawing board for the future. In truth, even if such an item was available, it might not be your best option. Since kayak weights vary from the low 30s for smaller sit-on types up to the 140s for well-equipped fishing kayaks the vehicle roof capacity can come into play. The Canyon basket...

  • Can Thule Canyon Roof Cargo Basket Fit 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    I checked with Thule and the Canyon Cargo Basket part # TH859XT-8591XT that you referenced can fit your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited JL but you'll have to have the Thule roof rack part numbers # TH712500 and # TH65BJ installed to give the basket something to attach to.

  • Will the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket Fit My Factory Crossbars on My 2017 Mazda CX-5?
    Yes, I confirmed with Thule that the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket # TH859XT will fit the factory crossbars on your 2017 Mazda CX-5. In addition, your vehicle will also be able to fit the Thule Canyon XT with the 20-inch extension piece. For the basket with the expansion piece, I recommend the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 69" x 40" x 6" # TH859XT-8591XT.

  • Thule Bike Rack Compatibility with Thule XT Roof Cargo Basket
    The Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 69" x 40" x 6" - 150 lbs # TH859XT-8591XT can use the Thule UpRide # TH599000. The shorter # TH859XT will not allow enough space for the bike carrier to fit in the basket and the crossbar spread is not adequate to span the gap. If you want the bike carrier to ride on bars above the basket for more stability, you would need to use a basket with a crossbar like the Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket and Extension # Y07080-82...

  • Can I Use the Gladiator Utility Cargo Nets for My Thule Canyon XT Cargo Basket?
    Yes! You can definitely use the Gladiator Utility Cargo Nets for your Thule Canyon XT baskets whether you have the # TH859XT or the larger # TH859XT-8591XT. For proper sizing, I reached out to my tech at Gladiator, and he said that if you plan on not using a lot of cargo with the smaller # TH859XT, the correct net size you need is the # GC77FR. Although, for the larger # TH859XT-8591XT or if you are planning to carry tall cargo on the # TH859XT, I recommend going with the larger 4' 9"...

  • Will Thule Roof Cargo Basket with Extension Fit a 2014 Jeep Cherokee
    The Thule Cargo Basket part # TH859XT with the extension part # TH8591XT will fit your 2014 Jeep Cherokee with factory crossbars. I attached a review video that shows the basket being used on a 2014 Cherokee just like yours. The extension section would work just fine and realistically would just make the basket 20 inches longer. The total length would be 69 inches so you can measure that length on your roof. You can also buy these two together as part # TH859XT-8591XT.

  • How is the Thule Canyon XT Measured
    The 49" length of the Thule Canyon XT # TH859XT is measured as the overall length of the cargo basket. The front edge of the basket where the fairing sits does tilt inward and limit what you can put in that space, but not as much as you'd think. The fairing on the Canyon is roughly 5" tall, and you'll have roughly the front 4" long by 3" tall of the basket with the fairing hanging over. You can also get the longer Thule Canyon XT # TH859XT-8591XT to give yourself 20" extra length on your...

  • Best Locking Roof Mounted Cargo Baskets
    I do have similar roof mounted cargo baskets that can be locked to the vehicle's roof rack but the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket part # C18115-117 does not have this feature because it is more of any entry level, economy roof basket. If you must have one that can be locked to the vehicle's roof rack then I recommend taking a look at the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket part # TH859XT-8591XT with the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders part # TH450400 or the Yakima LoadWarrior Roof Rack...

  • What is Roof Rack Capacity for Extended Thule Canyon XT for 2017 Nissan Sentra
    The weight capacity for the Thule roof rack part # TH859XT-8591XT that you referenced which is a fit for your 2017 Nissan Sentra 4-door is 150 lbs. With just this part number you'd have the a complete roof rack with the extension. You'll also want to check the roof capacity of your Sentra and be sure not to exceed that figure as well. Basically the lowest rated component of the setup is the overall capacity.

  • Can Thule Roof Cargo Basket # TH859XT-8591XT Fit 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon and Hang Over Front
    It's not a safety issue to have a cargo basket like the Thule Roof Basket # TH859XT-8591XT extend past the roof line. It might add a little more wind noise but that's already to be expected with a basket like this. Aside from that as long as your crossbars are between 20" - 57" this basket will fit and work well on the roof of your 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon.

  • Will Thule Roof Cargo Basket and Extension Fit a 2006 Lexus LX 470 with Factory Roof Rack

  • Recommended Crossbars For RetraxPRO XR Tonneau Cover On 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 Short Bed
    For the RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover # RTT-80481 on your 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 I recommend adding the Thule crossbars. For this you will need the Bars # TH713700, Feet # TH460R and Fit Kit # THKIT3101. This will allow you to use the Thule ProRide Bike Rack # TH598004 or Thule Canyon Cargo Basket # TH859XT-8591XT mounted in the channels on the crossbars. I prefer the ProRide as it clamps to the bikes frame and does not require removal of the front wheel. The Canyon cargo basket is 40"...

  • Will Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack TH43003XT-501 Fit 2019 Ram 1500 Rebel?
    The Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH43003XT-501 is confirmed to fit your 2019 Ram 1500 if it has the 6-1/2' bed; it will fit your truck since Rebel is still considered a Ram 1500. If your track actually has the 5-1/2' bed then you will instead want to go with # TH57RV. This Thule TracRac SR rack is a very impressive system that has a weight capacity of 1,250lbs. The rail height for the 6-1/2' bed system is 28-15/16" and the rail height for the 5-1/2' system is 27-5/16"....

    Yes, the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 69" x 40" x 6" # TH859XT-8591XT which comes with the option to mount it using U-Bolts or T-Bolts will fit around the crossbars for the Thule Xsporter Pro # TH500XT. This basket will fit as long as the bars are between 20 inches and 57 inches apart. I have attached a review video for you to check out.

    Yes you will have no troubles with the: -Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket # TH859XT-8591XT and your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon Onyx. With the extension this roof basket measures 69" long, 40" wide, and 6" tall; without the extension the length drops by 20" putting it at 49", the rest of the values remain the same. Additionally, this cargo basket has a maximum weight capacity of 150-lbs, and the overall weight of the carrier sits at 39-lbs with the extension, and 29-lbs without the extension.

  • Roof Rack for 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 with Leer Cap
    There are some great options for roof racks on your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. Since you have the Thule Tracker II Rails, I recommend the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711520 with the Rapid Podium Feet # TH460R and Fit Kit # THKIT3101. This roof rack system can support up to 165 lbs and installs easily into the pre-installed tracks on your Leer cap. Then you can install the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Box # TH859XT-8591XT onto the Thule crossbars. If you want some added security,...

  • Cargo Basket and Roof Rack Recommendation for 2016 Toyota 4Runner
    Looks like you are looking for a cargo basket to fit the factory crossbars of your 2016 Toyota 4Runner. Since they mount on top of the vehicle where the sunroof is it's not really possible to fit one of these without covering the sunroof. But if you go with one that has a floor with plenty of openings like the Thule Canyon XT part # TH859XT-8591XT when the basket is empty the sunroof would be mainly unobstructed. You may need a set of crossbars if your vehicle only has raised roof rails...

  • Will Thule Canyon Roof Basket With Extension Allow Hatch To Open On Subaru Outback
    With the extension included with the Thule Canyon Roof Cargo Basket on part # TH859XT-8591XT, the overall dimension of the basket is 69 inches long x 40 inches wide x 6 inches tall. You would need a minimum of 20 inches between the crossbars to mount the basket, so that would leave approximately 24 inches or so of basket from the center of the rear crossbar to the back edge of the basket. You can measure from the center of your rear crossbar to the hatch when it is open to determine if...

    The real difference in which to get between the Yakima LoadWarrior with Extension, part # Y07070-74 and the Thule Canyon XT, part # TH859XT-8591XT will be between what kind of load bars you have equipped to the 2017 Toyota 4Runner and how its planned to be used. Additionally, if you have any other Thule or Yakima accessories should be a part of the decision. If you have Yakima's round bars or the 4 Runner factory bars, the LoadWarrior will be easier to install onto these and the LoadWarrior...

  • Can Fairing on Thule MOAB Cargo Basket Be Replaced
    The Thule MOAB was discontinued back in 2014 and while some parts are still available for replacement, unfortunately the fairing is not one of those parts.

If you really like the design of the MOAB then I recommend checking out the Thule Canyon XT # TH859XT as an alternative to replace your current roof basket.

  • Roof Mounted Cargo Basket for Leer Camper Shell with Thule Crossbars
    The Surco Safari Rack you mentioned, part # SPS5084-T400 requires crossbars as a connection point, it will not attach directly to the tracks. The basket is compatible with Thule crossbars. The # SPS5084-T400 you referenced is 84 inches, or 7 feet long. Surco also offers a 5 foot long model, part # SPS5060-T400.

    Aero shaped crossbars are definitely quieter than square bars so if you are wanting a quieter ride quality the aero shaped Malone roof rack part # MPG216 which is a confirmed fit for the raised roof rails of your 2016 Nissan Pathfinder would be the way to go over the # MPG202. With this rack installed you could then use the Thule cargo basket part # TH859XT-8591XT that you mentioned.
