How to Use the Thule Hullavator on a 2011 Nissan Xterra
Question:
Can a Thule Hullavator be installed on a 2011 Nissan Xterra?
asked by: Steve
Expert Reply:
The Thule Hullavator kayak carrier part # TH898 can only install on aftermarket roof racks that have bars that extend past the feet of the rack by at least 4 inches.
For that you would need the Thule Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401 and 53" WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420. With this installed you would be able to use the # TH898. I attached an install video for this roof rack on a similar Xterra as yours.
