Bruce, to mount the Thule Hullavator # TH898 on your 2024 Subaru Outback Touring, you're just going to need to add a set of crossbars.

I recommend going with an Aero style, personally, like the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711120 with the feet # TH710601 and the fit kit # TH37CE.

These aren't any more or less special than the others, but I think the shape of these bars are much nicer and it will work with about every accessory that requires bars to mount.

So does this mount on my current standard equipment roof rack?

@Bruce If you have a set of cross bars there is a good chance that it'd work but I can't definitively say yes or no since I don't know what you have.

I am still looking to order this but I am not comfortable with the 43" rail as it leaves zero overhang. I wish there were places that do installs.

What is the right length of crossbar to give the Hullivator proper clearance when coming down.

@Bruce There isn't really a right length, you just need a minimum spread of 24" and you need at least 4-8" of overhang for the Hullavator to work.

@DebbieH Debbie, it sounds like you have everything you need so the Thule Hullavator # TH898 is going to work with your setup.

@BryceD What I have is the Tuley 711320 with the feet and the fit kit. The only issue is it’s 53 inches long and I’m seeing on your site that a 50 goes with a 2024 Subaru outback

@DebbieH Debbie, the 711320 bars you have are actually 50" long so you're fine. The 53" bars are going to be 711400.
