You need to install a roof rack on your 2013 Toyota Avalon. The Thule Hullavator is compatible with your vehicle. Unfortunately, any roof rack for your vehicle will clamp to the frame of the vehicle. The roof rack that I recommend for your 2013 Toyota Avalon will consist of the following:
Yakima CoreBar Crossbars - Steel - Black - 60" Long - Qty 2, part # Y00422
BaseLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Naked Roofs - Qty 4, part # Y28TR
BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers - Qty 2, part # Y06130
BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers - Qty 2, part # Y06131
Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores (QTY 4), part # Y07204
This roof rack has a weight limit of 165 lbs. Your crossbars need to extend beyond the towers between 4" - 8" per side. I included the Yakima Same Key System Lock Cores so you can lock this roof rack to your vehicle.
Now you can carry your Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist with Tie-Downs - Side Loading, part # TH898.
I have included product description links, a video installation link, and video review links below.
