Will an Older Thule Cargo Box Fit the Factory Roof Rack and Crossbars on a 2014 Nissan Pathfinder
Question:
I have a 5 year old thule roof box, I dont recall the version. Its a low profile set up. Will it fit on 2014 nissan factory cross bars? Im about to sell my too short thule aero bars and feet and want to make sure Im not making a mistake before I commit to the Nissan cross bars.

It sounds like you have a previous generation Thule cargo box that used the Quick Grip mounts (the claw). These mounting feet will fit the factory roof rack on your 2014 Nissan Pathfinder. If yours uses U-bolts to mount then you will need to look at the inner width of the u-bolts versus the width of the Nissan crossbars.
If you want to compare the cost of the factory roof rack to aftermarket racks I have included a link to the roof racks we carry for your Pathfinder. If you like the factory look I recommend the AeroBlade Edge roof rack # TH7503B-TH7503B for black or # TH7503-TH7503 for silver.
Inno has a great option as well; # INXB108-115 with # INXS100.
And Rhino-Rack has a fabulous lower cost option, # JA7971 for black or # JA7952 for silver. Your Thule cargo box will fit any of these systems.
