Evo Flush Rail Foot Pack

There isn't a lot of info out there on what roof racks work with the 2020 Ford Escape with panoramic roof. I took a gamble on the fit kit (6049), along with the evo flush rail foot pack and the 53" wingbar evo 135. It fit! Install was pretty easy. The only thing I had some frustration with was that I'd get all of my measurements perfectly set/centered/whatever but then as the bar tightens down it can pull you out of your perfect measurement a bit. It took a couple tries but I was able to get the bars perfectly centered and spaced eventually. Also, the end caps took a little finesse (gentle rubber mallet) to get pushed on, but it wasn't too bad. Start with the backside, tap tap tap, then make sure the middle area lines up with the rubber spacer, then keep tapping until it's all the way on. Better yet, there's at least 1/4" of clearance between the bar and the highest the panoramic roof goes while it's sliding back or tilting. There's a very slight increase in wind noise, and depending on which direction/speed wind is blowing from I pick up a tiny whistle somewhere in the 30-50 mph range. I haven't played around with moving the bars forward or backwards yet though. In any case, even with the radio on low the noise is easily drowned out. Overall, very pleased with my purchase.

Always great product

Needed kit to mount to my new to me station wagon that has Flush bars. I already have a set of Thule square bars. My kit is missing the physical mounting hardware within the plastic pieces. I received only the plastic mounts, key and locks, and the wrench to install them but there was no hardware to in the foot pack to wrench. Instructions, Packaging, or listing do not make it clear what is included. Will be returning as I am unable to contact Thule.

You still need the fit kit! I ordered this and couldn’t use it on the road trip we planned because I didn’t realize this! Go to the Thule site and look up the fit kit needed for your vehicle (for us that was Thule Kit 186117). Without it, you won’t be able to attach these feet to the roof rails of your vehicle!

Check out my video review for tips; The pros: -incredibly well made -Great looking addition to your vehicle -whisper quiet when paired with the evo bar the cons: -very high price tag (plan on paying around 700 for a full roof rack setup) -instructions could be better I hope this was helpful, along with the above video. If so, let me know by clicking below!

Don't trust the photos. They picture the fit kit, which is NOT included. These feet do not attach to your car without them. To say I'm disappointed with Thule is a massive understatement. If I hadn't already purchased all the other parts I'd be looking into another brand.

Used version was missing parts

Very nice support for Thule roof racks. I didn't realize until installation (when parts were missing) that you need a vehicle specific 'fit kit' that is sold seperatly. I was lucky enough to pick them up the next day at the local Public Lands store but installation was delayed at least one day because I was unaware that the seperate 'fit kit' was needed.

Usual Thule product… well built and easy to use.

La imagen principal de la publicación muestra dos complementos que no vienen en el interior de la caja. No viene la placa metálica para sujetar a presión la base al auto, tampoco viene la tuerca para ajustar con la llave de perilla. El contenido en la caja solo es: Cuatro bases de plástico negro con tornillo, una llave allen de perilla y cuatro tapones de hule para hueco de llaves

TRAE UNICAMENTE LOS POIES DE RIEL PERO NO LOS ACCESORIOS PARA EL AJUSTE A LAS BARRAS , O ESO SE TIENE QUE PEDIR APARTE, PARA MI MANERA DE VER ESE PRODUCTO ME LLEGO INCOMPLETO

Don't forget to use the Thule site to plan your purchase and select the right fit kit, which is not included. Don't listen to the bad reviews and plan ahead.

Good quality products but does not come with a lock and key which was disappointing. Once I got the fit kid to fit these feet, the fastening to my Genesis GV70's surface mounted rail was solid.
