Question:
What roof rack will work with my Thule Hullavator on my 2021 Toyota RAV4 with flush factory rails?

Expert Reply:
To mount the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist with Tie-Downs - Side Loading Item # TH898 on your 2021 Toyota Rav4 with flush rails, you will need a crossbar system that gives you at least 4 inches past the feet of the system in order to function. For a great system that will give you that clearance on your 2021 Toyota RAV 4, I recommend the following parts:
- Yakima HD Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 55" # Y01156
- SkyLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Fixed Mounting Points, Flush Rails, and Track Systems # Y53TR
- HD Bar SL Adapter for Yakima BaseLine, SkyLine, TimberLine, and RidgeLine Towers # Y03541
- Landing Pad 23 for Yakima SkyLine and Control Towers # Y98FR
- (Optional for theft-deterrence) Yakima Same-Key Lock Cores # Y07204
With this setup, you will have a maximum weight capacity of 165 pounds. I recommend confirming the maximum roof weight capacity in your vehicle's owner's manual. As far as the fitment of the Hullavator with the HD Crossbars, you will be able to mount the Hullavator into the top channels of the crossbars. If you need locks for your Hullavator, you can add the Thule Same-Key Lock Cores # TH450200.
