Scoob-a-Roo Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I was just on the Thule site and with their fit guide it says nothing is compatible. But I've Thule roof racks on legacys before. Will the 480 traverse foot pack work on the Legacy? What fit kit do I need? I also want to use the square bars, seems I should go with the 48" width? What length fairing should i use also? Using the roof rack to haul a couple DH bikes around, so I would like to get a rack setup as spring is on us. Thanks for any help, Tyor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeltaNu1142 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on an Aero kit... what's the difference between the 480R & 400XTR? And why (on Thule.com) does it say the 480R requires a 53-inch blade, where the 400XTR takes a 47-inch blade? Tits mcgee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaNu1142 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Answer: 400XTR is practically discontinued. 480R is the way to go. No idea why they recommend the longer bar, although there is some application overlap between the two. Tits mcgee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laz Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 If you have a 4th gen I have the feet and rubber attachments. Had it mounted on my 4th gen but I sold it and have them ready for sale. Let me know if you want pics of it. X --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
