Roof Rack Recommendation for 2017 Ford Transit Connect Long Wheelbase for Thule ProRide  

Question:

Hi, Im looking to carry some mountain bikes on my 2017 Ford Transit Connect XL LWB. Theres no existing rails, but factory mount points. I like the Thule ProRide, but Thules feet, cross bars, fit kit, etc are expensive. Im wondering if I can go with something like a VanTech J2000 or the TracRac Van ES for the rack, and mount the ProRide to that? Will this work? Is there a good reason to get a Thule rack instead?

Expert Reply:

The Rhino Rack aero bar roof rack that consists of part numbers # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLT600H, and # RRRTS546 is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Ford Transit Connect and installs by attaching to the factory roof fixed points you mentioned. It's also the best priced setup and works with the Thule ProRide # TH598004 .

For what you are looking for this would be the best overall setup.
