Usable Bar Space with Thule 53 WingBar Roof Rack on 2014 Jeep Cherokee with Raised Side Rails
Question:
Hello, I have a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk with factory raised roof rails. I am looking at this particular rack set-up and was wondering how much usable bar space there is between where the feet would attach to the bar.

The Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack System that you referenced, which consists of part # TH711420 for the WingBar Crossbars and # TH710401 for the Evo Raised Rail Feet that will attach to the side rails, is a great option for your 2014 Jeep Cherokee. I wasn't able to track down exactly how much space there will be between the mounting feet, although it's important to keep in mind that the entirety of the 53" long crossbars will be usable, even the portion that extends past the feet and side rails.
I do recommend adding the Thule Lock Cores # TH450400 to help protect your investments.
Since the Thule Crossroad Feet are just going to mount right to the side rails though, you can still pretty easily determine the dimension you're looking for by simply measuring between the raised side rails on your Jeep's roof.
I have attached a short video review that you can check out as well.
