Helpful Expert Reply:
The 46" long Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA118B-2 will work great with any J-Style kayak carrier that is compatible with an aero-style crossbar - it doesn't have to be a specific brand. You need the following parts to install this bar on your vehicle depending on what kind of roof your 2019 Chevy Equinox has:
Naked Roof - # RRRLKVA and # DK488
Fixed Mounting Points - # RRRCL4 and # RRRCP62-BK
Raised Rail - # RRSX100
If you don't already have a kayak carrier I recommend checking out the etrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier # e98878 because it's at a great price-point, comes with all of the tie-downs you need for your boat, and has a massive weight capacity at 150 lbs.
Attached is a review video of the kayak carrier for you to check out.
