Expert Reply:
The Thule Hullavator # TH898 requires a roof rack that has crossbars that extend past the feet of the rack so you would need to have an aftermarket roof rack installed for it to fit. This would be true for all assisted kayak carriers similar to this.
So for a roof rack the Rhino Rack part # RRVA137S-2 # RR37QX would be a great choice for a higher quality roof rack at a lower price. You can also use the top channels of the bars to attach the Hullavator for a cleaner looking setup.
