Question:

I have a 2022 Acura RDX with rhino vortex aero crossbars 54” fitted bought from you a few years ago , order 113653202. My question is will a Thule hullavator work with this setup? If you’re not sure, then any guidance you can provide would be appreciated such as what I should go measure. Thanks

Hey Matthew! The Thule Hullavator Pro # TH898 is compatible with your Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars. However, you will need to measure to make sure you have enough clearance to use the Hullavator.

Your crossbars need to extend 4"-8" beyond the feet for proper clearance. See the attached diagram. If you meet that requirement you're all set. If not, you will need to get longer crossbars like the 59" Rhino-Rack Sportz # RR75AG.

What kind of kayak are you carrying?
