What Length Crossbars Do I Need to Carry the Thule Hullavator Pro on a 2020 Subaru Forester
Question:
What length Malone Airflow 2 bars would I need to use with a Thule Hullivator on a 2020 Subaru Forester w/ raised bars? Thank you.

Expert Reply:
The Thule Hullavator Pro # TH898 requires at least 28.5" of usable bar space, and between 4"-8" of those need to be outside of the mounting feet of the roof rack. For this reason I recommend going with the 58" long bars on the # MPG216, which has aero style crossbars that will accept the Hullavator Pro and provide you with plenty of bar space to carry your kayak.
I've linked some installation and informational videos on these two products for you to have a look at as well.
