Parts Needed to Secure a Paddle Board to a 2013 Jeep Compass

Question:

I saw you recommended parts #THARB47B, #TH460R, and #THKIT3097 for a 2014 Compass. Would the same kits work on a 2013 Compass and what is the cost for those kits?

Yes, the Thule Aero Load Bar System which is composed of part # TH711220, part # TH460R, and part # THKIT3097 is a confirmed fit for your 2013 Jeep Compass as long as you have the flush factory side rails that run front to back. The price of the system can be found by adding the price of each component which is found on the product page.

In order to attach a paddle board to this system I recommend using the Thule SUP Shuttle Stand-Up Paddleboard Carrier part # TH811XT. It contains a padded barrier between your paddle board and crossbars which will allow you to secure it without damage. It also comes with all of the other tie-downs and straps you need.

I have attached a review video for you as well.
