Roof Rack for 2021 Toyota Sienna to Carry Thule Hullavator
Question:
Hi Etrailer, We have 2 kayaks we want to put on our 2021 Toyota Sienna which has factory installed roof rack and crossbars. What length of crossbars do you recommend to fit 2 sets of Thule Hullavator? Thank you

You can add the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier # TH898 to your 2021 Toyota Sienna, but not with the factory crossbars; you will need to add an aftermarket roof rack that fits on the raised side rails because the crossbars need to extend out.
The roof rack that fits your 2021 Toyota Sienna with raised side rails is from Yakima, and consists of the following:
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Black # Y00425
- TimberLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y33TR
- Same Key System Lock Cores (Optional) # Y07204
These are 50 inch crossbars, which aren't long enough to use two of the Hullavators; you wouldn't be able to use two of them because longer crossbars would extend out so far past your Sienna that it would be a hazard for anyone walking by. So instead, I recommend going with one Hullavator and a different load assist, the Malone DownLoader Kayak Carrier and TelosXL Load Assist with Tie-Downs # MPG114MD-351XL.
You could also forgo the Hullavtor entirely and just use the aforementioned Malone set up with an additional DownLoader, the Malone DownLoader Kayak Carrier # MPG114MD.
These options would be the only way to get a pair of load assist kayak carriers on 50 inch crossbars, and I have added links below to video reviews of the DownLoader, JetStream crossbars and Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier # TH898.
