Ladder Rack and Tonneau Cover Recommendation to Fit 2013 Ram 1500 for Use with Thule Hullavator

Question:

Will the Thule Hullavator Pro kayak carrier TH898 fit on the Access Adarac Aluminum Pro truck rack, or does it have to be a Thule rack? I have a Truxedo Lo Pro QT tonneau cover on my 2013 Ram 1500 quad cab, so looking for a rack that will allow me to use both the cover and the Hullavator to be able to more easily load my 12 foot fishing kayak solo. If the Adarac wont work, I think the Thule TracRac would work with both - but it is much more expensive and I dont know how well it will work with the tonneau cover.

I have a solution for you, but I warn you it is going to be a bit pricey since you'll have to replace your tonneau to then use the Thule ladder rack so you can use the Thule Hullavator part # TH898. Only the Thule ladder racks have the correct channel for the Hullavator to fit.

The ONLY tonneau we can guarantee will fit with a ladder rack is the Bak Revolver like the part # BAK39213 that fits your 2013 Ram 1500. Then the only ladder rack that will fit is the Thule Sliding TracRac part # TH43003XT-501 which has channels on the tops of the bars that will allow the Hullavator # TH898 to fit.
