Hey Laura! To add the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Roof Rack # TH898 to your 2025 Subaru Crosstrek I recommend the Yakima JetStream roof rack. There are two different options depending on your roof.
If you have the factory raised rails you need the Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00426 along with the TimberLine Towers # Y33TR. If you have a naked roof you need the SkyLine Towers # Y53TR, Landing Pad 22 # Y00248, and then the same crossbars # Y00426. Both of these will give you the necessary overhang to install your Hullavator.
Any big trips coming up with your kayak?
