Will Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Kayak Carrier Fit OEM Crossbars on 2008 Nissan Xterra
Question:
Do they fit on a 2008 factory roof rack of an Xterra?
asked by: Don
Expert Reply:
We do have some kayak carriers that will fit the OEM roof rack on your 2008 Nissan Xterra but the clamp system on the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero # TH849000 won't be able to install on the larger crossbars.
A similar system from Yakima is the JayLow # Y04073 and it has been confirmed to fit. I have attached a review video of this for you to check out.
If you are brand loyal and want to stick with Thule then the following has been confirmed to fit your OEM roof rack:
DockGrip - # TH895
DockGlide - # TH896
Compass - # TH890000
In this case the Compass would be the closest to the Hull-A-Port XT because it is the only option that can be used as a J-Style carrier. I have attached review videos on these as well.
