Does Thule Recommend a Specific Width When Installing Top Tracs on a LEER Topper
Updated 01/05/2026 | Published 09/09/2024 >
Question:
Purchased the Thule TB60 for my Leer topper and was wonder how far apart on the shell to mount them? I do not have the feet and cross bars at this time, so I dont want to go to far apart or have the angle messed up to mount the feet and everything down the road. Is there a recommended width or a max width for mounting them. Thank you.

Great question, Kyle!
Thule actually doesn't have a recommended width distance for their Thule Top Tracks # THTB60 because there are a variety of crossbars lengths and one of them will definitely work with your truck topper.
Typically you're looking at nothing over 60" but this can vary.

Hey Kyle, how did things go with mounting the Thule Top Tracks on your Leer topper? Did the spacing you chose work well once you added the feet and crossbars? Your update could make it easier for the next person setting up a similar rack.
