Thule Xscape Tonneau Uprights
The foundation of the Thule Xscape rack system for tonneau-equipped trucks.
The Thule Xscape Tonneau Uprights are designed specifically for trucks equipped with compatible retractable tonneau covers featuring integrated T-slot rails. These uprights create a strong, adjustable platform for carrying gear above your truck bed while maintaining the functionality of your tonneau cover.
Whether you're hauling bikes, rooftop tents, or overland gear, this system allows you to expand your truck’s capability without stepping up to a full canopy. Built from rugged aluminum and engineered for real-world use, the Xscape Uprights deliver strength, adjustability, and a clean, integrated look.
Important: This product includes uprights only. Load bars and a compatible mounting kit are required to complete the system.
Add compatible Thule Xscape Load Bars to complete your rack setup.
Fitment Warning: Before ordering, confirm compatibility with your tonneau cover.
