Thule Roof Rack to Fit 2022 Subaru Ascent and Outback Wilderness

Question:

I cant see a difference between the raised side rails for the 2022 Subaru Ascent and the 2022 Subaru Outback Wilderness. Being that TH7503 fits the Ascent, I believe TH7503 might also fit the Wilderness. Please advise.

While the 2022 Subaru Ascent and 2022 Subaru Outback Wilderness have similar raised rails on the roof, the difference between the 2 vehicles has to do with the width between the rails. According to my research the Ascent has a slightly wider distance between the raised rails than the Outback Wilderness.

If you're looking for a roof rack that fits both vehicles then you'll need the standard Thule crossbars since the legs will be more adjustable:

53" WingBar Evo Crossbars - # TH711420
Evo Raised Rail Feet - # TH710401
Lock Core Kit - # TH450400 (optional)

This style has the crossbars sitting on top of the legs instead of connecting directly into the legs so it won't look as factory but you will get more real estate for your accessories.
