Question:

I just purchased the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 59inch Long for my 2021 Ram 2500 Mega Cab. I just purchased a 13ft tandem kayak 35inches wide and 77 pounds. Will the Thule Hullavator TH898 work with my setup. Im concerned will not be able to get the kayak on or off the the roof of my truck by myself.

So the Thule Hullavator # TH898 has a 75 lb weight capacity but your kayak weighs 77 lbs...if there was a way to lighten it by 2 lbs it would work great to help you get the kayak to the roof of your Ram that has the Rhino Rack roof rack.

The Hullavator is compatible with the Rhino Rack crossbars too as it can attach to the top channel of them.
