• Recommended Roof Rack and Rooftop Cargo Box for 2017 Volvo XC90 With Flush Mounted Rails
  I would be happy to get you exactly what you need. To do so, I would first need to know if your 2017 Volvo XC90's roof has side rails on top that are raised or if they are flush to the roof (basically, if there is a space underneath the rails on top of your roof or not). If you can get back to me with that info I can get you exactly what you need.

• Thule Hullavator 897 And Hullavator 897XT Compatibility Issues
  The brackets on the Thule Hullavator 897 and the Thule Hullavator 897XT are not the same. The first generation Hullavator was designed to only work with Thule square bars, so it will not work with your Thule WingBar Evo. The updated model, 897XT, was designed to work with square and elliptical shaped crossbars. If you have the correctly shaped bracket you will be able to mount your Thule Hullavator 897 to your Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Silver - 53" Long - Qty 2, part # TH711400....

• Can 60 Thule AeroBlade Bars be Used on a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the E Group Package
  To determine if you can use the 60" WingBar Evo Crossbars, part # TH711500 or part # TH711520, will fit on your 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee you first need to measure the center to center distance between the mounting holes where the Podium feet will sit. I have attached a picture showing where you want to measure. If this measurement falls between 46-1/2" - 59-3/4" then the 60" bars will fit.

• Roof Rack Recommendation for 2020 Honda CR-V to Use Thule Hullavator
  For your 2020 Honda CR-V Touring with a naked roof the Thule WingBar roof rack part numbers # TH711400, # TH710501, and # TH145046 would be your best option with the Hullavator part # TH898 that you ordered. Thule has tested this combination and found that it works great plus it installs easier than other options and also is the quietest option too. For a lock set for just the roof rack you'd want the part # TH450400 but if you wanted lock cores to match the Hullavator as well you'd want...

  You'll need to install a roof rack first on your 2019 Mazda CX-5 that has no side rails but once you do so you'd easily be able put a Thule Force XT Rooftop Cargo Box # TH6358B or the Pulse L # TH615 that you mentioned. For a roof rack I would highly recommend the Thule Wingbar Evo roof rack part numbers # TH711400, # TH710501, and # TH145079 as this is a very high quality roof rack for your CX-5 that is easy to install and has aero shaped crossbars to give you a very quiet ride quality.

• Can the Thule Helium Aero 3 be Used to Carry 3 Bikes in a Class I Trailer Hitch Receiver
  The straight-forward answer is no, you should never carry 3 bikes in a Class I hitch. Any trailer hitch manufacturer will confirm this. Even though it would seem like using a lighter bike rack like the Thule Helium Aero 3 # TH9043PRO would keep the total weight down, it is more about the leverage than the weight. If you have a Class I trailer hitch receiver that has a 200 lb weight capacity and you max it out with 2 bikes or 3 bikes the 3 bike configuration will not be safe because the...

• Installing Rubber Strip on Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars
  The top rubber strips on the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars like the 53" # TH711400 you were looking at are a bit different in design compared to the older AeroBar models. Out of the box you'll have a strip of rubber that likely needs to be cut (simply matching its length to the crossbar's). Once you have the needed length, you will actually pull apart the strip down the middle, separating them into two narrower strips. Then it's simply a matter of pressing them down into the crossbar channel,...

• Ball Mount and Roof Rack for 2015 Ford Escape
  Let's start with the ball mount; since your Escape has a towing package and a hitch, you should start with a ball mount. You mentioned a Class II hitch so I am assuming your receiver is 1-1/4". As for the correct rise or drop, since your camper company specified 16 inches to the top of the ball you'll only need to measure from the ground to the top of your hitch receiver and find the difference between the two measurements. If the height of your hitch is greater, you will need a ball...

The Rhino-Rack is sturdy, has an attractive design to compliment your CRV, and the aero bar design reduces wind noise and is also a great value.

The Thule Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401 will easily clamp around the roll bars on your Jeep once the soft top is removed and give you the ability to either use the 53" WingBar Evo Rails # TH711420 Black or # TH711400 Silver OR the 60" SquareBar Crossbars # TH712500.

  For your application I recommend using the Thule WingBar Evo roof rack system with the Small Inno Roof Deck Platform Rack # INA510 and the Thule Interstate Cargo Bag # TH869. I've personally installed the Inno Roof Deck Platform Rack a number of times (see attached on a 2017 Nissan Titan) and it is pretty light (28.7 lbs) plus it is very easy to install. When it comes to your Thule roof rack the parts will vary depending on if your 2018 Volvo XC90 has the raised or flush rails: Raised...

According to Thule though your 47" AeroBlade crossbars are too short and you'll need at least the 53" crossbars.

• Roof Rack for 2017 Toyota 4Runner to Accommodate Thule Hullavator

However, because the Hullavator requires between 4" and 8" between the feet and the end of the bars, and since your kayaks are 36" wide you would only be able to use one Hullavator; longer bars would make the distance between...

• Roof Rack Fit for 2013 Volkswagen Touareg With Roof Rails and Sun Roof
  There is definitely a solution for you, though it could be that you have a sun roof and not a moon roof. This matters in terms of fit, because a moon roof slides into a cavity in the roof and does not extend above it, while a sun roof generally does extend above it. Due to this, the rack you mentioned, Rhino Rack # RRVA126B-2 and # RRSX022, would not work for your 2013 Volkswagen Touareg because the rack should not be used with vehicles that have a sun roof. Additionally, each of the Yakima...

  Hey Mina! It sounds like you have the old Hullavator 897XT which only fits square crossbars. If you have the Sky One-Touch Top you can use the # TH33ZA. If you have the regular hard top you need the # TH712500 along with # TH65BJ for a complete roof rack. If you want to add locks then you will also need the # TH450400. Keep in mind, the max capacity for the towers is 165 lbs. You'll be limited by the towers or the capacity of your gutters, whichever is lower.

If your wrangler is a hard top, I recommend the Thule Rapid feet that connect to the rain gutters # TH65BJ along with the Aero Crossbars # TH711520. I recommend using the locks # TH450400 to secure the roof rack and then the Thule Top Deck # TH881 or the Thule Hull-A-Port # TH834 for a side loading J-style mount.
