Thule 500XT Xsporter Pro Multi-Height Truck Rack with Load Stops

The Thule 500XT Xsporter Pro is a multi-height aluminum truck rack that is perfect for the outdoor enthusiast who needs to haul bikes, boats, or cargo boxes, or for contractors looking to carry ladders, lumber, pipes, and more. The Thule 500XT Xsporter Pro can carry up to 450 lbs of gear on its 71" long extruded aluminum crossbars. You can raise the 500XT Xsporter Pro well above your truck's cab for clearance on longer loads such as canoes, kayaks, and ladders, or lower the rack below cab height when carrying bikes, cargo boxes, or other short loads.

Multi-height, adjustable crossbars

The uprights on the Thule 500XT Xsporter Pro use a rigid track with more than 30 points of adjustment. Large, easy-grip round knobs are used to loosen the connection between the foot portion of the rack and the upright. With a helping hand, hold the bar at the height you desire and tension the knob on each base.

Universal attachment to most pickup beds

The Xsporter Pro uses a simple clamp system which attaches to most trucks without a tonneau cover right out of the box.

Set of four load stops included

Thule includes a set of four full metal load stops that slide into the T-track on top of the Thule 500XT Xsporter. The load stops prevent side to side movement of canoes, ladders, lumber, or other loads. These load stops can be repositioned by loosening and re-tightening the oversized tension knobs. Additional load stops are available separately, they come as a set of four Thule 502 Aero Load Stops.

Locks included to secure rack to truck

The 500XT Xsporter Pro includes four Thule locks and two keys to secure the rack to your truck bed. Locks go into the bottom of two of the upright bars and into two covers over the attachment of the mounting hardware

Designed with aerodynamics in mind

The Thule 500XT Xsporter Pro crossbar is aerodynamically designed with AirTrip technology integrated into the bar to redirect airflow for superior aerodynamics. Rubber WindDiffuser strips are included for each crossbar, helping cut the wind and protect the crossbar from damage.
