Roof Rack Recommendation for 2019 Ford Explorer to Carry Two Thule Hullavator Kayak Carriers
Question:
Thanks for your help Jameson in identifying the correct rack for our 2019 Ford Explorer. Now the big question. Can any yo-yo with a fair amount of mechanical ability install the rack and hullavators?

To fit two of the Thule Hullavators # TH898 on the roof of your 2019 Ford Explorer with flush rails you'd want longer crossbars so that you can fit everything easily. So for that the Thule Wingbar Evo roof rack part # TH711520, # TH460R, and # THKIT3151 that has 60 inch long crossbars would be your best option. This rack is a custom fit for your Explorer, is a very high quality rack that is also easy to install.
