Thule 997

Excellent Thule 997 Goal Post Hitch Mount Truck Adapter for Thule Canoe and Kayak Carriers Thule Hitch PostBy Chalk dustI bought this hitchpost to haul my 12 1/2 foot porta-bote on top of my F-150 (Cab to Hitchpost).It fits into the 2" receiver on the back of the truck and bolts to your hitch via a threaded receptacle. (It would have been better to have a normal sized hole so I could use my locking receiver bar) It has 2 straps which I hooked inside the truck bed. I also added a second strap and that seems to hold the back from swaying. I tied rope around the hitch to hold the porta-bote onto the hitchpost. This seems to hold it tightly. You can adjust the height of the hitch post easily. I am using car straps to hold the front of the porta-bote on the cab of my F-150 but this is a separate issue.All in all, I am pleased as it has solved a problem for me.See all 5 customer reviews... » More Information about Thule 997 Goal Post Hitch Mount Truck Adapter for Thule Canoe and Kayak Carriers.
