Anybody here using a full Thule set up? Bed Rack with Roof Racks equal height? Ive seen the Yakima setup and was wondering if anyone has gone with Thule. I get 50% off Thule products through my job and was hoping Thule had a set up.

I use the Thule roof rack system, it's awesome.

That looks great! Any issue with the door seals or deformation?
Now I just want the Thule rack in the bed to match the height of the roof rack.

No issues whatsoever. I've used the Thule EVO system on 3 previous vehicles. Always top notch fit and quality. Be sure to get the right fit kit. Here's my parts setup (minus the storage box which I've had for years and used on previous vehicles). Prices in Canadian Dollars.

If you end up getting the roof and bed racks level, please post here as I'm interested in a similar setup - Thule or Yakima, whichever is better or less money.

I've had trouble with the Thule roof racks. Be very careful when clamping on. One side was a little off and bent the door frame. I had a no paint repair and it is better. The other side has a small bit of deformation to the door frame. VERY hard to notice. I emailed Thule and they didn't seem to care. The last time I used them for the kayak I did NOT tighten to recommended torque and worried about the load. I bought the elevate system and will not be using the racks again. Not sure how I feel about selling them or who would buy when I have to explain why I am selling. In my opinion I am not a complete idiot and I think the door frame is just marginal in strength for the Thule system.
