Very good price but with one caution. It's the original model. The current model is the 897XT. Some of the original models had an issue where, when pulling the rack down for loading the kayak, the rack did not always stay locked in the down position and would snap back up unexpectedly.

But, for $100, it may be worth the gamble. Maybe Thule has a fix for it, if the problem occurs.

I called and spoke to the seller.  Will pick it up this afternoon after work.  It'll help me load my Moken kayak (73lbs) without breaking a sweat.  :smt003 Thanks for the info Jim.

Sonny,
You beat me to the to punch.  I just called and the guy said it was sold.  I don't really need a second set but for the price; I was going to get it.  I have the newer model and it seems to work great.  The only down side is their way to tall to fit my Subaru in the garage with them on.  Fortunately, they're really easy to remove and install.
