Can Thule ProBar Crossbars Attach to Thule Feet TH430R

Question

Question:

I have an application where Id like to use a longer load bar such as these TH713600 Thule Probar Evo load bars. Id like to use my existing older Thule 430R footpads which attach to the older T slot load bars using 3/8inch wide opening. In turn the footpads attach to a rail system using TK1 tracker hooks. This is on a 2010 Leer camper shell. My main question is will the 430R footpads be compatible and attach to the Thule Probar Evo load bars? Thanks for any help you all can provide. Best Regards,

While it's no longer made you are in luck as the TH430R was designed to attach to the same bottom channel as what the Thule Pro Bar Evo load bars # TH713600 is designed to attach to so you could replace the bars you have with these and it would work fine.

Answer 12

The standard diameter for trailer leaf spring bolts is 9/16 inch which is why the part #E4139 and all similar options have this hole size. We don't have anything with a smaller diameter but my guess is what you have is actually 9/16 inch.
