Old school Thule raingutter towers

I have 5 sets of these Thule towers for raingutters. They are cast aluminum towers with a slot design to secure the crossbars using a simple nut and bolt. I don't have the nut and bolt for all the towers, but I included a picture of one.

They do have the raingutter clamps and the knob to tighten, you would need to source crossbars and the bolt/nut to tighten the crossbar in the tower.

I have no idea how old these are, some are used and some are new, you really can't hurt a piece of cast aluminum - just some scratches from being tossed in a box for the past ten years or so.

I attached pictures of the towers, the slot design, and the factory knob/bolt (of which I only have 2).

Can anybody use them? Or enlighten us on what they are, and how old they are, etc?

I'd like $10 for a set of four towers, plus shipping, which we can do the USPS flat rate box for $10. Seems like you could fab up a nice fullsize rack using 6 or 8 towers if you were so inclined! Quantity discount is negotiable!

I would like a pair, I have the same ones but in a tall version for clearing a pop top vw bus. Now on my RRC they are taller then needed.

I will PM you.

OK - I didn't get a PM - but I don't check expo daily so you can email me at:

I assume they take the same crossbar as the steel versions, maybe you can fill me in?
