Expert Answers about Chevrolet Cargo Bar


  • How Does Erickson Lever Action Cargo Bar Stay in Place
  • While the Erickson Lever Action Cargo Bar # 08907 doesn't have a ratcheting system, if you check out the attached video you can see that when the lever is lowered, the bar actually extends a little more. So once you have the bar extended to the side of your bed there will be additional force put in place to help keep the cargo bar stable.

  • How To Strap Down the Etrailer Cargo Bag # 988501 In The Bed Of a Truck
  • To tie down the etrailer Cargo bag, part # 988501, inside your truck bed I would recommend to inspect the inside of your truck bed and see if there are any tie-down points or hooks located at the front, back and/or sides of the truck bed. On many of the newer trucks they will usually have tie-down points located in the truck bed to tie-down any cargo. You could use the straps that come with the cargo bag or you could also use a truck bed cargo net that will tie-down and trap or hold your...

  • How to Install a Thule Roof Mounted Cargo Basket?
  • The Thule Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, part # TH859XT, is an attachment for roof bars that are attached to the car. They do not require any additional drilling to assemble.

  • Do Both Pads on Erickon Cargo Control Cargo Bar Pivot
  • The Erickson Cargo Control Cargo Bar # 08908 referenced in your question does indeed feature rubber pads on both ends that can swivel/pivot to ensure a secure fit against the bed rails on your truck. The foot on the opposite end of the ratchet has the exact same swiveling property as the end that you mentioned. I have attached a short installation video on this product that you can also check out.

  • Is Rola Roof Cargo Basket Compatible with Round Crossbars
  • Your Thule Roof Cargo Basket # TH859XT is absolutely compatible with round crossbars. I can see where the confusion might come in because the directions show it being mounted to an aero crossbar but this basket will absolutely fit your round crossbars without issue. The only thing you need to consider is that your crossbars need to be in a spread range of 20 inches to 37 inches apart.

  • Does the SportRack Cargo Basket have an Integral Locking System for Security on a 1999 Trooper
  • At this time there is not an integral locking mechanism for locking the SportRack Cargo Basket, # SR9035, to the roof rack. The best option for locking this basket to the cross bars would be a cable lock like the Cable Lock # e98891. If you wanted to stay with the Yakima brand and have a basket with integral locking system, you could use the Yakima LoadWarrior Basket, # Y07070, along with the Yakima Locking Mount Brackets, # Y07064, which includes locks for locking the basket to the cross...

  • How does the SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box # SR7018 Mount on the 2008 Toyota Highlander
  • The SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box, item # SR7018, has a U-Bolt mounting system that will mount to factory cross bars no larger than 4 inches in diameter. If your 2008 Toyota Highlander does not have cross bars from side to side across the vehicle you can add them with the Thule Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401, 53" WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420, as well as locks # TH450400.

  • Idea for Attaching Light Bar to Roof Cargo Basket
  • I am sure there is a way you could mount the Vision X Xmitter Prime IRIS Off-Road Light Bar # XPI-12M to the Yakima Load Warrior part # Y07070 if you wanted to, but aside from modifying light bar brackets like part # 57-0000 there really isn't a way that I can recommend.

  • Are the Thule Quick Grip Cradles Necessary for Installing Cargo Box with Quick Grip Mount Assemblies
  • The Quick Grip Cradles # TH8523387001 referenced in your question will go underneath the crossbars on your vehicle. When the knob is turned on the Quick Grip Mounts # TH05738, the clamps will close around the cradle and press it against the crossbar. The cradles are needed to provide a secure and safe connection to the roof rack crossbars. These come with a quantity of 1, so you will need one for each of the Quick Grip Mounting Assemblies on your Thule Atlantis Cargo Box.

  • Can the Rightline Ace Cargo Bag # RL100A20 Mount to Roof Side Rails on a 2009 Honda Odyssey
  • Yes, you can strap the Rightline Ace Cargo Bag, # RL100A20, to the side rails on your 2009 Honda Odyssey. This cargo bag can mount to raised side rails, crossbars or a cargo basket. There will be straps on the sides of the bag that you can simply feed under or over the side rails to secure the bag. If you do not have a cargo basket or crossbars, then the bag may move slightly forward and backward when braking and accelerating so it is important to make sure that the bottom of the bag and...

  • Replacement Quick Grip Mount Assembly for Thule Atlantis Cargo Box
  • I will start by comfirming that the Replacement Quick Grip Mount Assembly - Thule Cargo Box item # TH05738 is the correct grip mount assembly for the Atlantis 1600 Cargo Box. I have linked a diagram detailing the dimensions of the grip that also shows its maximum capacity so you can confirm your Jeep Grand Cherokee's factory bars are not exceeding it. The grips will fit differently on the smaller square bars. I do recommend replacing your older ones in case they have lost some of their...

  • Installing Roof Mounted Cargo Basket on 2004 BMW X3 Not Equipped with Crossbars
  • The Thule Roof Mounted Cargo Basket is meant to be attached to the cross bars of a roof rack system. To provide cross bars on your existing rails that run from the front to the rear of the vehicle, you can use the Rola Sport Series Roof Rack with RB Mounting System, # 59827. If these can be installed between 20 inches and 37 inches apart, then the Thule Canyon XT # TH859XT will work for you. It is also advised to check the owners manual to determine the weight capacity of your vehicle...

  • What is Needed to Install the Rola Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, # TH859XT on a 2006 Land Rover LR3
  • The most important thing to check is the spread of the crossbars that run side to side on your 2006 Land Rover LR3. If the cross bars are spaced between 20 inches and 37 inches apart, then the Thule Canyon Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, # TH859XT, will fit. Also make sure you stay within the weight capacities of the roof rack and your roof. I have included link to the installation details and a video review of the basket below. If you do not have a roof rack, or cross bars that run side to...

  • Can I Drill Holes in the Trunx # TRX34FR to Accomodate a 38.5 Inch Bar Spread?
  • I have cargo solution for you. While it may technically work to drill holes for the mounting hardware of the Trunx Cargo Carrier # TRX34FR, the manufacturer does not recommend drilling holes to accommodate a crossbar spread over 31 inches. Since we do not know the exact Yakima crossbars you have on your roof rack, the Trunx carrier will clamp around the bars as long as they do not exceed 3-3/4" wide x 1-3/16" tall. I recommend measuring the height and width of your crossbars to make sure...

  • Is Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack Adjustable on 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee w/ E Group Package
  • The E Group rails on your 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee actually only offer fixed points for the Thule WingBar Evo roof rack like parts # TH711420, # TH460R, and fit Kit # THKIT3142. Unfortunately if you have adjusted the feet of your Thule cargo box around (if that is possible) and it will not fit far enough forward enough for your rear hatch to open without making contact then you will need to either get a new box or use an alternative method. If you're looking for a cost-effective option...

  • 3rd TracRac Bar for a 2014 Ford Transit Connect Rooftop System
  • A third crossbar can be added to the 2014 Ford Transit Connect, but you will need to purchase a second full 2 bar kit, part # TH29611XT. This will install one bar into the middle set of holes on the roof of your 2014 Ford Transit Connect. I haven't had any customers reporting use of this system, but I anticipate that you'll get a little more wind noise from the third bar and any accessories you add. Remember that you'll need to purchase accessories and adapters for a TracRac bar, as...
