In order for the Malone AirFlow 2 - 50" # MPG215 to fit on your 2018 Chevy Equinox, your vehicle needs to be equipped with raised factory rails on your roof (without factory crossbars). If your vehicle has raised rails, you are good to go!

If you have a naked roof on your Equinox, we do offer some great alternative racks that will definitely work. For that route, I recommend the following setup:

- Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 46" Long # RRVA118B-2
- RCL Legs for Rhino-Rack Crossbars and Pioneer Platforms - Fixed Mounting Points # RRRCL4
- Custom RCP Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack RC and RV Series Roof Rack Legs - Fixed Mounting Points # RRRCP62-BK
- All Metal Locks # RRVA-LEC4

With the Rhino-Rack Vortex crossbars, you receive the same aero-style design as the AirFlow 2. These types of crossbars have decreased wind resistance for a quieter ride. Also, just like the AirFlow 2, the Rhino-Rack setup comes with locks (that can be upgraded to all-metal locks # RRVA-LEC4) for theft-deterrence. The Rhino-Rack system provides your vehicle with the same 165-pound weight capacity as the Malone as well. As with all roof racks, I recommend confirming with your vehicle's owner's manual to make sure that your roof can hold that much weight.
