Im trying to see how much total height this adds to a 2023 tahoe. The OEM cross bars are about .5 inch too high for my garage. Thanks!

The WingBar Edge roof rack will add about 4-1/4" to the height of your 2023 Chevy Tahoe (4" for the crossbars but about another 1/4" for the caps on the legs), and that measurement is taken from the roof to the top of the crossbar. If this works for your setup then here are the parts you need:

- WingBar Edge Crossbars # TH76FE
- Edge Flush Rail Feet # TH89SC
- Fit Kit # TH95JW
- Lock Core Kit # TH450400 (optional)

We actually had an opportunity to install this roof rack on a 2023 Tahoe and we have an installation video I've linked for you to reference. If you jump to the 1:23 minute mark of the video you'll see where this measurement is taken!

Answer 6

The Rhino-Rack Roof Rack #Y01-140B-NT that you referenced does fit the top channels on top of your Leer camper and would work well. It will give you a heavier duty set of bars that have a channel on top for attaching roof rack components.
