Question:
Im looking for roof top bike rack to fit my 2017 F350 Crew Cab truck. I thought Thule had a solution but it appears they may have discontinued the model. I like the Thule over Yakima but may not have a choice if Thule in fact did discontinue the rack for my truck. I dont need the bike mount part I need the rails and mounting pieces usually sold in a kit for the make/model of the truck/car.

Sounds like you're just needing a roof rack for your 2017 Ford F-350 so you can use your bike rack. We actually do have Thule options for you! You just need to use one of the 60" crossbar options listed below along with the Evo Clamp Feet # TH710501 and the Fit Kit # TH145177:
60" Crossbars
WingBar Evo Black - # TH711520
WingBar Evo Silver - # TH711500
SquareBar - # TH712500
Don't forget to add lock cores for your roof rack with the 4-Pack # TH450400, or using the 6-Pack # TH450600 or 8-Pack # TH450800 if your bike rack is a Thule and you want to get them all keyed alike.
If you happen to not already have a bike rack or you're looking to upgrade then a great option is the Thule OutRide # TH561020.
I've attached an installation video of the WingBar Evo system on a 2019 Ford F-150 as well as a review video for the OutRide for you to check out.
Question:
Will the ProRide XT bike mount work with the system you provide?

Yes, the Thule ProRide Xt # TH598004 (or part # TH598004-FB for a fat tire bike) will fit just fine with the WingBar Evo or SquareBar roof rack system. You can use the channel mount configuration for the WingBar Evo or the clamp on hardware for the SquareBar.
