Question:
Im an older person with limited strength to lift over my head and Im hoping to have a Hullavator Pro installed on my 2013 Suburu Outback wagon!! Could you recommend crossbars that would work?

Expert Reply:
I recommend using the Yakima JetStream crossbar system because you can use longer crossbars to ensure that you get the 4" - 8" clearance past the legs that's require for using the Thule Hullavator Pro # TH898. For this you need the following:
60" JetStream Crossbars - Black # Y00426
TimberLine Towers - # Y33TR
For this setup you'll need to use the T-Slot installation for the Hullavator.
