It maximizes your vehicle's cargo carrying capacity and keeps dirty and damp gear outside of the vehicle. A built-in fairing reduces drag and wind noise, and the mounting hardware is adjustable to accommodate different crossbar spreads. The included 20" extension piece allows you to adjust the basket length as needed.


Aerodynamic, Low-Profile Design

Thule Canyon with Extension and Fairing

The low-profile Canyon XT is wedge-shaped and aerodynamic. A wind fairing attaches to the front of the basket to help redirect air up and over the basket. This helps to reduce drag and wind noise. And the side walls are tapered for easy loading.


Easy Installation

Installed Thule Canyon with Extension

The basket has universal mounting hardware that fits most crossbar styles, and the hardware adjusts to accommodate most crossbar spreads.


Adjustable Mounting Hardware

You can position the hardware anywhere along the bottom of the basket to match your crossbar spread. The hardware easily clamps to basket's bottom rails.


U-Bolts & Hand KnobsInstalled U-Bolts

To install the basket, simply align the included U-bolts under your crossbars and use the hand knobs to tighten them to the mounting hardware. The system includes 3 sets of U-bolts to accommodate most crossbar sizes.


You can also mount the basket directly into your crossbar's top channels using the included T-bolts. Just slide the T-bolts into the crossbar top channels and use the hand knobs to tighten them to the mounting hardware.


Removable Extension

Thule Canyon Basket with Extension

This basket comes with an extension that allows you to customize the length of the basket depending on your needs.


Thule Canyon Basket with Extension

You can bolt all 3 pieces together to create a long basket to carry kayak paddles and other long cargo. To install the extension, loosen the bolts on the bottom of the basket with the included Allen wrench and remove the front of the basket. Slide the ends of the extension into the bars of the basket and re-secure the front of the basket to the extension.


Thule Canyon Basket without Extension

Or simply bolt the front and rear pieces together leaving out the 20" extension to create a standard size basket for bags, camping gear, and other compact cargo.

I’ve got several 1400+ mile trips with this on both a 2017 4Runner and a 2023 Kia Sportage. The basket is well made, easy to install, very solid and so far rust free.



by:

Fit my OEM Hyundai Palisade crossbars p erfectly.



by:

As advertised, fast shipping, easy to install, quality product.



by:

All items were delivered quickly and as ordered. I would definitely order from etrailer again.



by:

Use this for camping and going to the beach. Works perfectly and holds a lot more than the fancy luggage carriers and costs a lot less. Just buy a waterproof zip up cargo carrier to put everything in and strap it down.



by:

This was so easy to put together. It fits great on my 2014 Subaru Crosstrek. I plan on loading all the camping gear in it when we go on vacation. The folks at ETrailer.com have been great inn keeping me up to date on the status of my order.



by:

Love this basket. Sturdy, easy to install, super functional. Would never have another car without it.



by:

Excellente product, utilized to travel on a Chevy Taho. Great capacity, easy to assemble and installation. Practical no noise during travel.



by:

Easily assembled in about 20 minutes. Sturdy construction and should last a lifetime. Lillian W. was very helpful and courteous through the process.



by:

Excellent quality and looks great!



by:

Takes a little time to assemble and install but the end product is worth it. Now i am worthy to go camping and carry all my stuff with me!

Product arrived super quick and was very easy to install.

I love this basket! Once I centered on cross braces, it was easy to leave the connectors in same spot. Also, low enough profile to drive in and out my garage. We have a screen door so that made it a shorter height than traditional garage door.



by:

We were very happy with our Thule roof rack. The low profile design works well and does not have too much wind noise compared to others I’ve had. It’s held up very well also through the seasons.

Love my new Thule canyon xt roof cargo basket!! Fits on my 2022 Toyota Prius Nightshade, it was easy to assemble!! Shipping was awesome came in quicker then I expected!!



by:

Ordered the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket from etrailer. It came within days of oredering and is as advertised. Ordering from etrailer was an excellent experience. They followed kept me informed of the status as we went along and sent me warranty information after receipt George and Carol were great to work with. PS - the installation was a breeze and we used it to haul roof top items on our camping trip last weekend. Thank You - I will certainly not hesitate to order from etrailer again!!



by:

The Canyon XT installed with ease & also provides multiple mounting brackets for attaching to crossbars.

It will definitely give us more interior room or additional cargo capacity!

I highly suggest reading the directions a few times before you start & during assembly. Some parts are in the same bag for a step while other steps need parts from different bags.

Depending on your vehicle, all parts may not be used. So make sure the parts you have left over are the right ones!



by:

Great OEM fit and great look. Price was a little on the expensive side but it was easier and quicker to go through etrailer than retailer.



by:

Great product and absolutely awesome service. I originally order the Thule Canyon XT basket from a VERY well know online entity. I wasn't able to get a ship date (they said a would be notified via email when a firm date had been established. After two days of waiting for the message, I cancelled the order and checked etrailer.com. They had the same Thule basket at the same price, so I ordered it. It wasn't 10 minutes later that I received an email thanking me for the order and further stating that the product had shipped!!!!!! A UPS tracking number came early the next day!!!! Great product, great price and great service!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks - etrailer..........



by:

Received and installed just in time for a family trip to a cabin. This rack was perfect for storing coolers and bags to free up space in the back of the car. The only difficult step in the installation was getting it as close to centered as possible on the roof rails.



by:

Very happy with product and time frame of delivery and the tracking info is always a great asset. Easy to assemble. My only problem was i needed help getting in on the roof of the truck. Also liked the how to and information about the product videos . Thank you . Next item is the cargo bag. :)



by:

Just finished installing my roof basket this morning. No problems doing it by myself. Good, solid product!

Thanks to the team at etrailer for exceptional service, and especially to Michael B. for his help with changing my shipment from my home address to my work address!

See what our Experts say about this Thule Roof Basket

  • Could Thule Cargo Basket Fit 2018 Toyota Tundra Crew Max
    If your 2018 Toyota Tundra does not have a roof rack installed on it currently with crossbars that run right to left you would need to install one so that the Thule basket # TH859XT-8591XT has something to attach to. With a rack installed like the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA150S-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK079 which is a confirmed fit for your truck you'd be able to install the Rola basket.

  • Roof Rack for 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 with Leer Cap
    There are some great options for roof racks on your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. Since you have the Thule Tracker II Rails, I recommend the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711520 with the Rapid Podium Feet # TH460R and Fit Kit # THKIT3101. This roof rack system can support up to 165 lbs and installs easily into the pre-installed tracks on your Leer cap. Then you can install the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Box # TH859XT-8591XT onto the Thule crossbars. If you want some added security,...

  • Aluminum Roof Cargo Basket Recommendation Similar to Curt Cargo Basket # C18115-117
    The Curt cargo basket part # C18115-117 that you referenced has a powder-coated steel construction. If you wanted a similar aluminum basket the best solution would be the Thule # TH859XT-8591XT for the most similar in dimension as this measures 69" inch by 40" and the Curt measures 64-1/2" Long x 39".

  • Malone Roof Rack Recommendation for 2016 Nissan Pathfinder for Thule Cargo Basket
    Aero shaped crossbars are definitely quieter than square bars so if you are wanting a quieter ride quality the aero shaped Malone roof rack part # MPG216 which is a confirmed fit for the raised roof rails of your 2016 Nissan Pathfinder would be the way to go over the # MPG202. With this rack installed you could then use the Thule cargo basket part # TH859XT-8591XT that you mentioned.

  • Is There a Cargo Box for 44" Crossbar Spread On Trailer
    I do have an option for you but I don't think you will be able to find a cargo box for a crossbar spread this large, we do not offer any unfortunately. That said, we do have cargo basket options like the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket part # TH859XT-8591XT which is what I recommend and really your only option. You can lock the basket to the rack using the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders part # TH450400 but we don't really have any options to secure the contents inside the basket. If...

  • Roof Mount Cargo Basket that Can Hold 2 Curt Cargo Bags # C18220
    Two of the Curt Cargo Bag for Roof Basket - Waterproof - 13.5 Cu Ft Item # C18220 would be 76 inches long which is longer than the interior of the Cayon XT with extension # TH859XT-8591XT so you would not be able to get the full use of at least one of the bags since it would have to be scrunched up to fit. Two of the bags would fit much better in the Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket and Extension Item # Y07080-82 which is 78 inches long. The width will not be a problem....

  • Does 2016 Toyota 4Runner Need Roof Rack to Install Thule Cargo Basket # TH859XT-8591XT
    The Thule cargo basket part # TH859XT-8591XT needs to have a set of crossbars that run from left to right on the roof of the vehicle for it to install on. So for your 2016 Toyota 4Runner we have the Inno roof rack part # INB127 and # INFR which is a confirmed fit and would work well for the vehicle and cargo basket.

  • Will the Thule Roof Cargo Basket Fit on Factory Crossbars of a 2009 Lexus GX470
    As long as the factory crossbars on your Lexus GX470 are spaced anywhere from 20" to 57" apart, you'll be able to use the Thule Roof Cargo Basket # TH859XT-8591XT without any issues. Whether or not you can use your sunroof depends on if it sits below the crossbars when it's open, and where your crossbars are placed. In most cases, it's unlikely that you'll be able to open the sunroof with a cargo basket attached, but it does depend on how high your sunroof comes up and where your crossbars...

  • Net for Thule TH859XT-8591XT Canyon XT with the Extension
    The Curt Stretchable Cargo Net, part # C18201 with an unstretched dimension of 38 x 65 would fit the 69 x 40 Thule # TH859XT-8591XT Canyon Cargo Basket with Extension absolutely perfectly. I've linked to a product video featuring the Thule Canyon XT cargo basket.

  • Can You Attach Mounting Brackets to Extension of Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket
    Good question, but the mounting brackets must attach to the front and rear section - and not the extension - of the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket # TH859XT-8591XT. I verified this with Thule, and the reason is this allows for the most secure attachment to your vehicle's crossbars, with the most balanced distribution of the basket's weight.

  • Larger Roof Cargo Basket Recommendation for 2010 Mercedes Benz GL450 with Thule Rack
    You need to check the owners manual of your vehicle to find the roof capacity listed. I wasn't able to find an online copy of your manual otherwise I'd check it. For a larger roof basket that would fit well on the Thule roof rack you have the Thule Canyon XT # TH859XT-8591XT would work great. It measures 69" Long x 40" Wide x 6" Deep and has a 150 lb weight capacity.

  • Roof Rack and Cargo Basket Recommendation for a 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe with Raised Side Rails
    The Rhino Rack you referenced part numbers # RRVA137B-2 and # RRSX032 has been confirmed as a fit for your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe with flush mounted side rails. However, this rack is also designed to fit the factory fixed points of the roof like the other racks. See install video. You might be able to use a cargo basket like the part # TH859XT-8591XT for smaller items that you would need to carry on your roof if the you needed the narrower crossbar span for something small.

  • How Do You Transport a Spare Tire on the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket?
    If you plan to mount a tire on your Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 49" x 40" x 6" # TH859XT or the TH859XT-8591XT, it is safer to put the tire on its side in the basket (as opposed to being right-side-up with the tire treads meeting the bottom of the basket). If you need attachment straps to keep your spare tire secure on the Canyon XT, I recommend the Erickson Cam Buckle Tie-Down Straps w/ S-Hooks # EM34409.

    Thanks for the picture of your 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser! From that I can tell you have raised factory roof rails, to install the # TH859XT-8591XT you'll need a set of crossbars that run from left to right like the Rhino Rack Aero Bar kit part # RRVA118B-2 and # RRSX008. This is a high quality roof rack that has aero shaped bars.

    I spoke with my contact at Thule regarding the Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack # TH7503-TH7503 that you have installed on your 2018 Volvo XC90. He stated that while the instructions do call for a crossbar spread of 24 to 32 inches on your vehicle, it is acceptable to move to a larger spread of up to 36 inches when mounting your Thule Canyon XT # TH859XT-8591XT with the extension attached.

If your track actually has the 5-1/2' bed then you will instead want to go with # TH57RV. This Thule TracRac SR rack is a very impressive system that has a weight capacity of 1,250lbs.
