Thule Outrigger II

If you don't want a big scratch on your Escalade from trying to put your kayak on the roof by yourself, you'll be happy to see Thule's Outrigger II. The Outrigger II slides into the front load bar and pulls out when it's time to get your boat on the roof.

The Outrigger II is great for the lone paddler--this extension bar provides the extra hand when loading a boat by yourself. Retractable bar extends from inside load bar and provides a pivot point for loading boats on tall vehicles. Allows full length of load bar to be utilized for other accessories. Prevents unwanted boat-to-vehicle contact. Strength and great looks are provided by steel bar that is encased with aluminum. Integrated load stop prevents boat from sliding off bar when loading and unloading. Fits Thule standard load bars only.
