Recommended Roof Rack for Thule Hullavator and Another Kayak Carrier on 2019 Toyota RAV4
Question:
What do you recommend for a roof rack system bars and attachments to vehicle for a 2019 Rav4 to support a Thule hullavator system and a fixed kayak rack?

Expert Reply:
Assuming you have factory installed raised side rails on your 2019 Toyota RAV4, to carry the Thule Hullavator Pro # TH898 and another kayak rack I recommend 60 inch crossbars, which are going to stick out from your RAV4, so you will want to always keep note of that. In order for the Hullavator to work, it requires 4-8 inches of crossbar overhang (past the feet) on each side.
The reason is, the Hullavator Pro requires 28.5 inches of crossbar space and another rack will take up a similar amount of space as well.
The only rack that can work with larger bars are from Yakima because they have a bottom channel that extends the length of the crossbars. So the rack you need for your 2019 Toyota RAV4 with raised side rails is the following:
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00426 (Black)
- TimberLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y33TR
I have added links to video reviews for you to check out as well.
