Question:
Hi, I have thule hullavators. Ive had them for a long time. They were set up on a round bar. Now I have Wing Bar Evos from Thule. Do you have a connection that would allow me to mount the Hullavators to the Wing Bar? Id like to use the T slots if possible. Thanks

Expert Reply:
To get replacement T-Slot hardware for your older model 897XT Thule Hullavator carriers you need the following parts (4 per Hullavator system):
- Square Nut # 853-7557
- M6 x 30 Socket Head Cap Screw # TH919063054
- M6 Washer # 951061254
I've attached a clip from the original instructions showing how these parts should be installed in a T-Slot crossbar for your reference.

Thanks to Jon G for posting the installation instructions for attaching an 897xt hullavator mounting bracket to a Thule wingbar evo. This installation makes more sense than using a side flange and not having the bracket itself sitting the crossbar. There seems to be some confusion on the Etrailer website about the proper way to attach the 897xt hullavator to a wingbar evo. It may be that the aeroblade and the wingbar call for different mounting hardware, and the instructions in various answers to questions and in instructional videos are mixing up the two. At any rate, I'm grateful for this clarifying clip from the original instructions.
