Speaker 1: Today on our 2018 GMC Acadia, we’re gonna be test fitting the Thule aero blade edge roof rack system for raised factory side rails. These are aluminum and part number TH7502-TH7502. This also comes in black as part number TH7502B-TH7502B. The Thule aero blade edge roof rack system is great for carrying a wide variety of accessories on your roof and freeing up space inside your vehicle, but also giving that factory look once they’re installed as well. The bars themselves have this nice, aerodynamic shape to them and that coupled with the rubber strip up at the top, that’s gonna cut down the wind noise and drag while you’re driving, eliminating the need for any fairings or things like that that you may need for square bars. You are, however, limited by this point here, as well as on the other side.

That’s how much space you have to carry your accessories, such as bike racks, cargo carriers or cargo baskets. There is a plastic knockout that you can replace with the Thule lock core system, which is sold separately and you can find on etrailer.com.So not only can you secure this to your factory raised side rails, but you can also make a key to like with the accessories you’re carrying. Underneath here, you can see that we can use T track accessories with this as well by simply removing the strip, placing the T track accessory inside and cutting the strip to length and replacing it. Also, how this attaches to your factory raised side rail, we have this rubber coated steel strap that wraps around underneath and connects to these two points and has a tool that is also included to tighten it down. Unlike some of the other roof rack styles like this that maybe just clamp on around the factory raised side rails, this one has the strap that comes around and offers a little bit more peace of mind as to make sure it’s not gonna move around too much while you drive.

Next, we’re gonna give you a couple quick measurements. From the center of the roof to the bottom of the bar is gonna be 2 3/4″.From the center to the top is gonna be 3 3/4″ and that’s gonna give you plenty of space in between the bar and the roof to connect your roof rack accessories without making contact with your roof. Both bars have a combined carrying capacity of 130 pounds. But you always want to double check with your vehicle’s manual to make sure your roof can withstand those weights. Now that we’ve gone over some of the features of the aero blade roof rack system, we’ll go ahead and show you how it installs.

We have our front bar already installed on our roof rack and we have the rear bar right here in front of us. Everything you need, you’re gonna see right here. We have the bar itself, the straps to wrap around the factory raised side rails and the included tightening tool. Next, we’ll remove the end caps and install our strips. Now you’ll notice that there are four notches and they are numbered.

They’re gonna be installed on the inside here.To determine what notch it is, you have to measure the diameter of the factory raised side rail that you’re installing it on and then there’s a chart in the instructions to say which number goes along with this. In this particular case, we’ll be using notch #3. So we’ll attach our notch to this point here, sliding it in until it catches like so. We’ll do this on the other side as well and then we’ll install this onto our factory raised side rail. So we’ll take our bar. We’ll put it across. We’ll start with the passenger side here and wrap our strap underneath our side rail first. Then we’ll go to the other side and repeat that process. After that, we’ll measure out from center to center to get our crossbar spread down and according to the instructions, you want to at least have it at 28″ for a minimum crossbar spread. All right, we’ll make sure this is the same on the other side and then we can start tightening it down. Next, we’ll take the two open ends here of our strap and we’ll try to hook them up to these two points here.Now we’ve loosened it up a little bit and it looks like it’s gonna fit on just fine like so and then we’ll take that included tightening tool. We’ll go to the bolt in the center and just turn it to the right to tighten it down. Now this can
