Replacement Mounting Kit for Thule Cascade Roof Box on 2014 Ford Explorer with Factory Roof Rack
Updated 03/07/2017 | Published 03/05/2017 >
Question:
Hi. Id like to re-mount my Thule Cascade cargo box onto my new to me 2014 Ford Explorer. I need all new hardware - the old mounting hardware fell apart and cracked when I removed my box from my old car. My question is.....for use wtih the Ford OEM crossbars, should I buy the standard Thule QM3 replacement mounting kit, or do I need the Extended Length version of this mounting kit. Again, Ill be mounting to the factory OEM cross bars. Thanks in advance

Expert Reply:
The exact replacement hardware depends on what your Thule Cascade originally had. The Replacement QM3 Hardware # TH04997 is what you will need if your box only has pre-drilled holes for the hardware.
If your box has a metal track along the bottom used on later models of the Cascade utilized u-bolts that have been discontinued.
