Can I Use Thule Hullavator On Subaru Crossbars That Do Extend Past the Feet
Published 08/10/2019 >
Question:
THULE HULLIVATOR 898 AND THULE SUBARU EXTENDED CROSSBAR? DO THEY WORK TOGETHER?
asked by: SUE
Expert Reply:
The Thule Hullavator part # TH898 does require the cross bars extend past the feet at least 4 inches for the load assist option on the carrier to operate properly without damaging the vehicle. If your Subaru's cross bars extend at least 4 inches past the feet, are round, square, aero or elliptical, are least 31 inches long, and there is at least 24" between the cross bars then the Hullavator will fit. I have attached a photo that helps explain what I mean for your reference.
