Roof Rack Recommendation for Carrying Cargo on 2022 Toyota 4Runner
Question:
I have a 2022 4Runner TRD Premium with standard side rails that I do not want to remove. We will mostly just be carrying camping gear on it. Note bikes or canoes. I was thinking about going with Thule or Yamika. Could you recommend which one is best for being easy to install and not making a lot of noise? Also do these kits on this page include EVERYTHING that is needed to install? Like the hardware or stuff or is there more to buy?

For your application I recommend going with the Thule WingBar Evo setup because it's easy to install, is one of the top roof racks to cut down on wind noise and drag (right next to the Yakima JetStream system) and it has easy-to-use T-Channels for T-Slot accessories. Here are the parts you'll need for your 2022 Toyota 4Runner:
53" WingBar Evo Crossbars - # TH711420
Evo Raised Rail Feet - # TH710401
Lock Core Kit - # TH450400 (optional)
If you are looking for cargo carrying options I recommend checking out the Yakima OffGrid # Y07138-08 for an open carrier or the Thule Force XT L # TH6357B for an enclosed carrier.
Attached are some review videos for you to check out.
