60 Thule Rails and Parts Needed for a Thule Roof Rack on a Leer Camper Shell with 41 Rail Spacing

Question:

I am going to put a Thule rack on my Leer camper shell. I know want 60 inch rails, I was interested in Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack - Fixed Mounting Points/Flush, Factory Side Rails - Aluminum - Black Item # TH7603B-TH7603B. Do I need feet, and if so which ones. I can put the rails 41 inches apart, roof width, are these bars long enough?

The Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack TH7603B-TH7603B will not work with your 41" spacing. The Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack TH7603B-TH7603B need the rails to be between 43" - 46-3/4" apart and your 41" spacing that you have available would not be enough.

Since you want to use a Thule 60" track like the Thule Top Tracks for Roof Racks # THTB60, you will need the Rapid Podium Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH460R and the Fit Kit for Thule Podium-Style Roof Rack Feet # THKIT3101.

That will allow you to use the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711220 on your Leer camper shell.
