I have a Subaru XV Crosstrek, if I bought two carrier sets would they fit back to back so i could carry both kayaks on the car?

You should be able to. I have two sets on my '12 Acura MDX. Don't see why you wouldn't be able to do the same.

My 2008 RAV4 has a 34" wide top rack. The crossbars are 2 1/2" wide by approx. 1/2" thick (aerodynamic shape) and my 2 kayaks fit very cozy on it.

Hey A.S.! There definitely is the possibility of mounting 2 side by side. The Hullaport requires approximately 17" from the back of the carrier to the front. If your crossbars can fit this lenght, x2, we should be okay!

I could not answer as to the specific fit for your vehicle, but I have two sets mounted on my Honda Accord sedan, allowing me to carry two kayaks at a time.

Hi. Only my opinion. You would need 2 pair of them. One for each kayak. I'm sure the straps could go over both.

Yes. It will fit. They are adjustable to handle any width. Your challenge will be if you try to put two of them side by side. You need to make sure the support bars the glides attach to are wide enough to get both kayaks side by side. If you are just doing one.....you should be fine.

Sorry for the delay. And honestly it's been a while and we are trying to remember. We bought our racks to carry 3 kayaks. My husband did a little engineering but it works like a dream. You do need a certain kind of rail on your cover in order for the racks to fit. We did a lot of research on the Pace Edwards website before we purchased. We found all of our answers there. Good luck.

Well, you sure can attach this rack to your truck. As far as hauling 4 kayaks, I'm not sure because of how much room is needed for these. In my opinion you shouldn't have any problem hauling them.

I have carried them on a 4 door Subaru and it was great. A van might be better with a mini van because u can spread the pads apart more. Depends how the doors close.

Yes, as a matter of fact they are attached to my Thule bars right now. I have a Thule carrier and the malones attached to a Subaru Crosstrek. You will like the fold down feature also I think.

Beverly, I don't if ALL kayaks fit; I don't know ALL kayaks. I use the SeaWing to carry my Ocean Kayak Torque kayaks on top of a Dodge Caravan. I use the factory rack and the SeaWings fit nicely. The Torques are ~14ft long, almost 30" wide and weigh ~75 lbs. each; they are larger than average. I have driven at 70 mph and the kayaks are stable up there. The biggest reason I have these SeaWings is that I can drive into the garage with them during kayaking season, and don't have to take them off all the time. &lt;&lt;http://g-lu.smugmug.com/Family/2012-Christmas/i-nsrHfXs/A&gt;&gt;

Yes. In the picture they don't look that big, but they are. I loaded a tandem kayak with a width of about three feet and it carried it just fine. As for your Acura, the racks will sit high, but it should carry the weight. I mounted mine on a set of Malone square tubing cross bars.

One set per kayak. My Honda accord will only accommodate one kayak, but if your boats were narrow and roof was wide...maybe.

Yes. Agree with the 2 other answers I see. You should not have an issue carrying two kayaks.

I have a Subaru Forester with similar aero bars (also 2.5 inches wide, oval shape) and the carrier attaches with plenty of width to spare (bars could be almost an inch wider with no problem).

well, it all depends...... first you have to find out what the factory bars are rated at (look in your manual or online). add the weight of the kayaks plus the 4 Hull a Ports and compare to the max load. Load is just as important as whether it will fit or not. The bottom ends of the Hull a Ports should NOT extend past the factory bars once installed; to be safe, I think the spec is 2 inches or so inside the bars. You may need the Thule square racks if the factory racks are too small but will hold the load. I have those and they are awesome. The standard set up is for the bottoms to face each other, so no issues there. Good luck and enjoy your kayaks! well, it all depends...... first you have to find out what the factory bars are rated at (look in your manual or online). add the weight of the kayaks plus the 4 Hull a Ports and compare to the max load.

This product will only hold one kayak. You can fit two sets of them on top of a vehicle in order to carry two kayaks.

I'm not 100% sure. They can be moved on the cross member, but I think the width of your kayak would be the determining factor.

If your minivan comes with a roof rack, the Hullavator cross bars can be installed. The Hullavator hydraulic arms and cradle are attached to the cross bars. I am 5'4" and mine is on a 2012 Ford Escort. The only time I have to really reach is when putting the arms onto the rack assembly. Once in place, you pull the handles and the kayak cradles come down to just below waist level. Here is a YouTube Link that shows how it works. As far as I know, you would need one set of cradles for each kayak. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Pi90FXW4JA

This will handle one kayak. If your want to transport two, you need to buy another set.
