Question:
Will the Thule Hullavator fit on a Yakima roof rack?

Expert Reply:
As far as the Thule Hullavator # TH898, it will attach to most styles of Yakima crossbars (for example, the JetStream crossbars # Y00425, the Round Bars # Y00409, and the CoreBars # Y00422). However, you need additional components to mount Yakima crossbars to your roof. In order to give you a complete system, please respond to this answer with the year/make/model of your vehicle.
Also, something else needs to be considered. In order for the Hullavator to function, there needs to be at least 4 inches of crossbar space after the feet/towers of the crossbars system. This is because the downward motion of the cradles requires space when it functions. I went ahead and attached a diagram that shows the dimensions required.
