Will the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier Fit Xsporter Pro Ladder Rack on a 2017 Chevy Colorado

Question:

Will the Thule Hullavator pro work with the Thule x-sportster pro truck bed ladder?- I will be using these on 2017 Chevy Colorado 5 foot bed. Also, how deep can the kayak be and still fit in the Hullavator pro. I have a native watercraft slayer propel 10 foot kayak, it measures a little over 12 inches deep. Thanks.

Because the bars on the Thule Xsporter Pro ladder rack # TH500XT are so large there aren't a lot of roof rack accessories that will fit it. But the Hullavator # TH898 can be mounted using the top channels in the crossbars!

The Hullavator has a maximum kayak width it will allow (36 inches) but not a maximum height or depth so your 12 inch deep kayak would not be a problem since most of the kayak will still be supported by the carrier.
