How to Fit Two of the Thule Hullavators on Roof of 2018 Subaru Forester
Question:
Can we mount 2 Thule Hullavators on our 2018 Forester to transport 2 touring kayaks. We have raised rails and subaru aerobars, but guessing we would likely need to replace the cross bars.

Expert Reply:
The current version of the Thule Hullavator part # TH898 does state that it can fit most factory crossbars, but I checked with Thule and for your 2018 Subaru Forester they recommend using a bar setup from them to carry the Hullavator.
So what you'd need is 65 inch crossbars from them part # MPG203 and you'd be set. With this you could fit two of the Hullavators.
