I would be happy to help you. The Draw-Tite hitch item # 75894 sits 11" off of the ground when mounted on your 2018 Kia Sedona. I have linked a diagram I made. You will want the Curt Ball Mount item # C45446. This ball mount has a 5" Rise and fits a 2" receiver. You will also need the Curt 2" Hitch Ball item # A-90. This will give you a 17" height to match your trailers coupler.

The Yakima LoadWarrior basket, #Y07070, comes with mounting hardware that will fit crossbars up to 3-1/4 inches wide. The Rola roof racks use elliptical bars that are 3-1/8 inches wide so the Yakima mounting hardware will fit.
