Generally speaking, most vehicle roofs can handle between 100 and 150 lbs, but I'd recommend checking with the owner's manual or with Chevy.
Although the Rightline # RL100S20 has the ability to strap directly to the roof by running the straps through the interior of the vehicle, I prefer to see a roof rack used as an attachment point. Running the mounting straps through the vehicle compromises head room and can allow water to wick into the interior of the vehicle if it should rain.

The Viking Solutions Stack Rack II # 310-VSR201 could potentially be used to carry golf bags. The lower cargo carrier piece measures 32-5/8" x 17-5/8" on the inside and then the top piece measures 29-1/2" x 14-3/4" on the inside. If you measure your cargo bag(s) you should be able to tell if this will work for that application or not.
I will say since this only has 2 bars at the bottom you'll need to make sure the bags aren't moving at all so they don't fall through the bottom.

If you check out page 260 of the owner's manual for your 2016 Chevrolet Traverse it should say that if the model is an AWD and has the towing package then the max trailer weight it can handle is 5,200 lbs. You will want to be sure to check your owner's manual to verify this and to note any instructions on towing as well.
Some towing packages come with both a trailer hitch and wiring. If this is the case for you then you just need a ball mount, hitch ball, and pin and clip to complete your... view full answer...

I pulled the Channel Tongue Trailer Coupler, # CT-3001-Z, from our warehouse and the installation instructions state that you should use 1/2 inch diameter, grade 5 bolts and locknuts to mount this coupler to the trailer tongue. They said that it is acceptable to use 4 separate bolts or two long bolts passing through all four holes. You can also add two bolts to the top holes for extra strength. view full answer...
There is some basic information you need before you can choose the right weight distribution system for your set up. First, you need to know the tongue weight of the trailer. Second, you will need to know the gross weight of the trailer you plan to tow. These are two of the most important factors in choosing a weight distribution system.
Usually, you will need weight distribution if the trailer weight is at least 50 percent of the vehicle weight or if the coupled trailer causes the rear... view full answer...

The Kodiak Express 223RBSL Trailer has a specified dry weight of 4300-lbs and a dry hitch weight of 516-lbs, according to my research, but when you fill your water and propane tanks and load up your equipment and supplies you will be much closer to 5000-lbs total. Generally we always recommend having some safety margin in your towing system. In the case of this particular trailer used with your Traverse you might want to consider a lighter trailer that when fully-loaded with all gear and... view full answer...
The Curt Class III hitch # 13424 that fits your 2010 Chevrolet Traverse LT2 has a tongue weight (TW) capacity of 500-lbs when used with a hitch-mount cargo carrier like their # C18150.

This is usually about 10-percent of the gross towing capacity and should be noted in your owner's manual. I checked an online version of the 2010 Traverse manual for its TW rating but... view full answer...

From what I was able to find out from my research, the base model of the 2014 Chevy Traverse has a towing capacity of 2000-lbs, so that's the maximum weight you'll be able to safely tow without potentially damaging your vehicle. I would recommend confirming this with your owner's manual for advice on specific trim packages that you may have, but you'll always be limited by the lowest rated component in your towing setup.
In this case, even though the available hitches like the Draw-Tite... view full answer...
