Recommended Adapter To Connect a 1st Gen Thule Hullavator 897XT To WingBar EVO Crossbars  

Updated 05/28/2026 | Published 12/01/2024

Question:

Hi, I just bought a set of Thule EvoWing bars 711320. I would like to retro fit my older Hullavator TH897xt on them. It was previously installed on square bars and I don’t have any square nuts or flat brackets like I see on most of your videos for the newer 898 version. What do I need to make it fit? Thank you for your help! Your website is awesome!

Hey Fabien! We have a way to mount your older Hullavator TH897xt to your new Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars item # TH711320. It is the Replacement Aeroblade Shim for Thule Hullavator Kayak Carrier item # TH56JV. However, you are going to need to source the square nuts somewhere else because we do not have them anymore.

Great. Thank you. Do I understand that I would need 4 of them right?

@JerredH, do you still carry the TH56JV? I can't seem to locate it on your website.
