Question:
I have a 2018 Subaru Forester. If we put the Thule Hullavator on my vehicle, how much clearance is required to get the vehicle in my garage?
asked by: Jeanie
Expert Reply:
For garage clearance, your clearance height will depend on the combined height of your crossbar system and the height of the Thule Hullavator item # TH898 on your 2018 Subaru Forester. The height of the Hullavator measures 15-3/4" from the base to the highest point of the tallest cradle. If you have a compatible roof rack system, I recommend measuring the bottom point of your feet (the point that connects to the roof of your vehicle) to the top of your crossbars. This height added to 15-3/4" is the total height of your setup..
