I bought it used Hullavator but it missing some hardware for mounting onto the kayak rack.  Anyone has a manual for it that I can borrow to find out what I need or a spare parts diagram/drawing?  Thanks in advance.

I may have some of the parts for the newer model. I bought all of the mounting hardware so I could move the lift to either side. decided to just keep it on the passenger side so I no longer need the mounting hardware. If yours is the newer model let me know what you need.

Not sure which version of Hullavator I got.  Here is a picture of it, maybe you can help identify it.

Looks like the older one like I have.  I dont see the mounting bracket you install on the roof rack.  Should be a weird pin that you can slide in and out to mount the hullavator to the rack as well.  A is the bar, F is the pin: https://www.rerack.com/thule-hullavator-replacement-bar-mount-assembly-753352403/

Thanks Al.  Looks like the bar is "out of stock for ".  I will search the web for availability.

Yours looks like the newer version as well. Not sure how you tell them apart. I looked at the parts lists, and instructions for all three models, and they are very similar. The part numbers for the older models are different from the new ones. You should contact customer support to see if they can help you identify. Here is the Thule website at the part/instruction page.

The ones in the picture are the newer version.  The mounting hardware between the old ones and new ones are identical.

This is what I have. It should be everything other than the lift unit.
