Replacement Parts for Subaru Crosstrek SOA567X060 Thule Crossbars  

Updated 07/13/2026 | Published 07/04/2026

Question:

I need to replace the rubber strip on the top of my Thule rack which is sold via Subaru as SOA567X060 to fit the crosstrek hybrid. It looks like Wingbar Evo — but the the replacment strips I see don’t have the diagonal pattern that mine does. Can you hlep me find the right replacement strip?

Hey Elizabeth!

I found online that Subaru Crosstreks from 2019-2023 used SOA567X060, which correlates to Thule 47" Aeroblade crossbars, which is Thule's part number ARB47. Unfortunately, this product has been discontinued, but we do still have some replacement parts for it, including Replacement Cover Strip with Pattern for Thule AeroBlade Edge Cross Bars - 59" Long # TH69JH which I believe has the diagonal pattern you're looking for. This strip is 59" long, so it'll require some trimming to fit perfectly, but from there you won't have to worry about whistling or wind noise from the crossbars.

In case you ever need them, here are the other replacement parts for the Thule Aeroblade crossbars:

Replacement Endcap for Thule Aeroblade Load Bars - Passenger's-Side # 752-2867002
Replacement Endcap for Thule Aeroblade Load Bars - Driver's-Side # 752-2867001
Replacement Load Stops for Thule Aeroblade Load Bars, Ladder Racks, and Thule TracRac CapRac - Qty 4 # 753-3761
Replacement Retention Screw for Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Racks # TH63JV

What happened to your replacement strips? Is there any damage to your crossbars?

Thanks for your research and help! I will order the strips you suggested. I have no idea what happened to that strip, it’s really puzzling. I didn’t notice until I had taken the cargo box off. One of the endcaps falls out of position often, it was very windy on our long drive. The crossbar itself looks fine.

@ElizabethH Totally understandable, it happens to the best of us! Was this a roadtrip on just a long commute?

@JerryB Long road trip, upper Midwest across Canada and down into New England over two days. Seems so unlikely to dislodge, looking at the other one. It’s always possible some joker stole it.

@ElizabethH Very possible! I could also see the wind playing a part in that, though. Either way, I hope this gets you taken care of! Do you have any other trips coming up?
