2022 Kia Telluride Roof Rack Recommendation for 2 Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carriers
Question:
Can I fit 2 of these on a Kia Telluride TH898Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist with Tie-Downs - Side Loading - TH898 and do they lay flat when not in use
asked by: Karen M
Expert Reply:
Yes, you can fit 2 of the Thule Hullavator Pro # TH898 on your 2022 Kia Telluride. They use up 28-1/2" of crossbar space and weight in at about 40 lbs each so we definitely want to keep that in mind as we look into roof rack solutions. I recommend going with a Yakima JetStream roof rack system because it's the only system where the bars will be long enough to accommodate 2 of the Hullavators (not to mention it is a nice roof rack system).
The correct roof rack kit depends on if you have a naked roof or the flush mount rails:
Naked Roof
60" JetStream Crossbars - # Y00426
BaseLine Towers - # Y28TR
BaseClip Fit Kits - # Y06125 and # Y06165
Lock Core Kit - # Y07204 (optional)
Flush Rails
60" JetStream Crossbars - # Y00426
SightLine Towers - # Y64AR
SightClip Fit Kit - # Y34UR
Lock Core Kit - # Y07204 (optional)
The lock cores aren't necessary but it does allow you to lock the roof rack to your vehicle.
