Can Thule Hullavator Be Used On ARE Fiberglass Camper Shell with Tracks

Question:

I have a Thule Hullivator kayak rack. Is there a way this can be mounted on the Yakima track On the ARE cap using either Thule or Yakima parts?

It is possible to use the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist with Tie-Downs part # TH898 on an ARE fiberglass camper shell with tracks. This can be done with either Thule or Yakima products. That said, you'll need to use one where the crossbars extend out 4" from the mounting feet. I can't tell you what exact length you need as it depends on the distance between the tracks but the Yakima CoreBar Crossbar System part # Y00422-482104 is a good starting point. It has 60" long crossbars.
