Ladder Rack With Square Crossbars For 2017 Ford F-150

Question:

I want to know what the cross-bar dimension is. Is it square tube? Aluminum? I have some older Thule kayak roller and cradles that still function, but they would need the square tube to attach....

The cross bars for the Invis-A-Rack Folding Ladder Rack - Black Powder Coated Aluminum - 500 lbs
Item # DZ951600 are aluminum but the center portion of the cross tube is the only part that is square. The cross bar span is 69". The manufacturer is unable to provide the circumference measurement of the cross bars.

If you are looking for a rack with square tubes for your 2017 Ford F-150 I recommend the Adarac Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack - Steel with Aluminum Crossbars - 500 lbs Item # A90630. This rack is an aluminum construction so it's light weight, has square tubes to accommodate your older Thule components and has the same weight capacity as the Invis-A-Rack. Keep in mind these square bars are 1-1/2" x 1-1/2".
