Question:
I have a 2022 Chrysler Pacifica with factory side rails. What crossbars should I get to install the Thule Hullavator?

Expert Reply:
To transport a kayak with your 2022 Chrysler Pacifica we'll need to get you a trailer hitch so you can tow a roof rack on wheels since there currently (as of May 2023) aren't any roof rack options for your vehicle aside from what it comes from the factory with, and even that isn't compatible with the Hullavator.
For the trailer hitch I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C65CR because it has a 2" receiver and hidden crosstube. Then for wiring you need the T-One # TK96FR along with the mounting brackets # BK4F and # 18136 to mount the wiring connector near the receiver.
Then to round out the whole setup I recommend using the Curt Fusion Ball Mount # C45155 to tow the Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer with V-Style Carriers # MAL43FR.
I know this isn't the solution you're looking for, but at this point in time it's the best available option.
