Recommended Crossbars for a 2024 Ford Expedition w/ Raised Side Rails

Question

Question:

I just got a 2024 Ford Expedition. Can you help me add a set of crossbars to it? It had the raised roof rails and some of the roof rack kits I have seen are expensive and look ridiculous. I just need a simple set of crossbars to span the distance between the rails. Thank you

Yes, I can and congrats on the new vehicle! To add a set of crossbars to the raised rails of your 2024 Ford Expedition, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar Roof Rack item # JB0190. These crossbars mount directly to the side rails and have a flush design which means they do not extend past them. This crossbars have a 176 lbs capacity.
