Can I Install A Thule Hullavator On A Yakima Roof Rack
Updated 03/15/2022 | Published 03/12/2022
Question:
I have a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek with Yakima RidgeLine towers on factory crossbars and 60inch Yakima CoreBars. Can I mount the Thule Hullavator on this set up? I have included a picture.

Helpful Expert Reply:
I have taken a look at your roof rack. You will be able to attach the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist with Tie-Downs - Side Loading, part # TH898, provided you reduce the length of the crossbar hanging beyond your Yakima RidgeLine tower to between 4" and 8". Once that is done, you will not have any issues installing the Thule Hullavator on your 2019 Subaru Crosstrek.
I have included a video review of the Thule Hullavator and a picture outlining the requirements for the Hullavator to fit a roof rack below.
