Question:
I have a 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport model with no roof rack but want to purchase the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Roof Rack and Lift Assist w/ Tie-Downs - Saddle Style - Universal Mount but what roof rack do you have that I can attach the Hullavotor to which requires 4-8 overhang?

Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, we do. To carry the Thule Hullavator item # TH898 on your 2021 Jeep Gladiator Sport, I recommend the roof rack by Rhino Rack and it includes the following parts:
Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 71" Long - Qty 2 item # RRVA180B-2
RLTP Leg Adapters for Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Track Mount - Qty 4 item # RRVA-FK1-2
Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Legs - Gutter Mount - 4-5/16" Tall - Qty 4 item # RRRL110S5-2
These crossbars are 12" longer than the item # RRVA150B-2 typically recommended for your Jeep. The extra length will give you the clearance required for the Hullavator item # TH898 lift assist function to operate. The included locks will help prevent theft. The rubberized vortex strips in the top channels dramatically reduce drag and wind noise.
I have linked an installation video below.
