Kayak Carrier Recommendation for 2008 Subaru Outback with Factory Crossbars
Updated 05/22/2017 | Published 05/21/2017 >
Question:
Need a reasonably priced kayak carrier 1 kayak for a 2008 Subaru Outback with OEM rack and crossbars. As you know there is not a lot space between the roof and the Subaru crossbars. Id greatly appreciate your advice on what to purchase to hold the kayak including whatever fittings that might be needed. I already have the suction cup loaders, but nothing else. Thanks for your help.

Expert Reply:
The Thule Hullaport Kayak Carrier part # TH834 is confirmed as a fit for your 2008 Subaru Outback Wagon's factory crossbars so it would be a great option. It's also pretty reasonably priced too and includes straps and everything needed to secure the kayak.
