Which Cargo Basket Will Fit The Factory Side Rails On My 1999 GMC Suburban?
Question:
Do you guys have any experience mounting to GMT400 Suburbans 1992-1999 Suburbans. Mine is 1999. Im trying to verify if I can adapt to factory rails or are the drill through mounting options? Thank you!

I would look into the Surco Safari Rack 5.0 Rooftop Cargo Basket # SPS5084-1101. Luckily, you do not have to install crossbars to fit this cargo basket as it comes with adapters to clamp onto your Suburban's factory side rails. This measures 84" long and 50" wide. For a more-affordable option you can go with the Surco Safari Rack 5.0 Rooftop Cargo Basket # SPS4560-1101 which is slightly smaller at 60" long and 45" wide. This also comes with the necessary adapters. I attached a demonstration video for you to check out.
