Question:
I have the Thule Rapid Traverse towers. They use the Acutight grey and green torque tool. Can I use the Thule clicking torque tool to install the roof rack and then the Acutight grey and green tool they came with?

Expert Reply:
I understand that it would be tempting to use Thule's newer Torque Tool # TH73JV with Rapid Traverse Feet # TH480R.
