Question:
Will a Thule Force XT L fit on my 2017 Equinox? I have factory rails and Thule AeroBlade part # ARB47 with a 24inch on center spacing. If not, is there a cargo box that will work?

Yes. The Thule Force XT L # TH629706 is one of the cargo boxes that Thule recommends for use on your 2017 Chevy Equinox and is compatible with the Thule Aeroblade Edge Roof Racks # TH7501B-TH7501B. The Thule Force XT L requires a minimum of 23-5/8" bar spacing, so your 24" spaced bars are not an issue. You'll want to make sure that when mounting this box on your crossbars that you have 47-1/2" between the center of the back bar and the edge of the rear cargo hatch so that you still can fully open the back of the car with the box attached.
