|
The pair of (TP54) 54 inch Thule Tracks make it possible to build a multi-purpose base rack system on vans, camper shells, truck caps and other applications where no other type of roof rack system will work. Once the Thule Tracks are installed, either the Thule 430r Rapid Tracker Feet & TK FitKit 1 base rack system (see below for this system) or Thule 430 Tracker II Foot Pack & TK FitKit 1 base rack system (see below for this system) simply snap into the tracks. The 430r Rapid Tracker Feet or 430 Tracker II Feet can adjust by moving forward and backward in tracks, creating the ideal space between load bars for whatever cargo you are transporting. Simple installation and no need for headliner removal. Tracks, instructions and all hardware included. Thule Racks Lifetime Warranty! Packaged as a pair.
NOTE: This is a permanent rack that is installed by drilling into a truck cap, camper shell, car roof top or other surfaces. The 54 inch Thule Tracks include FlareNuts for installing on metal surfaces. No need to remove the headliner. Will not work on fiberglass tops. You will need the 60 inch tracks, which include traditional bolts and nuts for installing on fiberglass surfaces. FlareNuts work only on metal surfaces and some aluminum surfaces.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS OF THE THULE 54" TRACKS
Please call us at 1-800-894-7547 if you have other questions.
WHY WOULD I INSTALL TRACKS?
Thule Roof Rack Tracks provide a way to install a rack where no other option exists, or offer an alternative in where a rack is placed on a vehicle's roof. Some simply prefer the appearance over other options.
WHAT IS A FLARE NUT?
A Flare nut is a "blind" fastener that, once installed, provides a threaded screw hole in sheet metal. It works a lot like a molly bolt in sheet rock, only much stronger and is made of stainless steel. They are installed using a special expander tool that comes included with the tracks and hardware. We recommend them for specific vehicles (use our Thule Fit Guide located below) to avoid having to remove a vehicle's headliner. Fastening is done between the headliner and roof so you will never see them from the inside.
CAN I USE FLARENUTS IN FIBERGLASS?
No. The Flare nut is designed for sheet metal only. They won't be stable in fiberglass, and may cause damage. Good old-fashion nut and bolt hardware is needed for fiberglass. The Thule 60" Tracks come with Nuts and Bolts (see below for this item).
WHAT THULE MULTI-PURPOSE BASE RACK SYSTEM DO I USE?
Thule Roof Tracks can use either the Thule 430 Tracker II Feet & TK FitKit 1 (see below for this system) or Thule 430r Rapid Tracker Feet & TK FitKit 1 (see below for this system).
HOW DO I PUT THE THULE TRACKS ON?
The installation instructions will clearly illustrate where to position the tracks and where to drill the mounting holes. Mark those points, drill the holes, install the FlareNuts and bolt down the tracks.
WHAT KIND OF WATERPROOFING IS USED?
The tracks come with a waterproofing kit including nylon and rubber washers, a pad running the length of the track, and silicone for the screw threads. Installed as directed by the instructions, it'll keep the water out and resist corrosion much better than a factory installed rack.
CAN I USE THE FLARE NUTS ON ALUMINUM?
Flarenuts can be used on aluminum, but performance will vary depending upon the thickness and construction of the roof. Check with the manufacturer for roof schematics and seek a professional install if necessary. As with all custom installations, it is entirely up to the customer to determine if it will work.
