Thule Hullavator - Lift Assist roof Rack - $425

Are you able to space the distance between the racks so that it cradles the narrower part of the hull?

If I'm getting what you are saying, I don't think so. The cradles are angle upward and you cant change the angle on them.


I'm going to look at them tonight to see if I can modify.

I don't mean changing the angle. I mean spacing the mounting of the rack on your roof(see arrow) so it cradles closer to the bow and stern(yellow circles).

Ahh That makes more sense! Great Idea but it does not work on my car. On my 4runner the bars are I have are mounted to the door sills so they can only go as far apart as the doors go which is not far enough apart for the narrower parts of the kayak.
