Roof rack options
Hopefully someone who has experience can advise, but what are some roof rack upgrades that work with the factory slide mounts?

Are you looking for a full length roof rack or maybe 3/4?

Not full length, just upgraded/extended crossbars.

Both Thule and Yakima make feet that go into the factory rails that allow you to attach bars to them. I personally went with Thule because I prefer their square bars as well as I felt the feet were a better fit. It's a great system. Super easy to pop my bars on and off. The vast majority of time I drive around with no bars on. I only put the bars on when needed. Takes only a minute or two to put them on and take them off.

I'm sure you can figure out how to find them. Teach a man to fish...

It's amazing right? Everyone has Google at their finger tips & Amazon has the best price 99% of the time.

For sure. And I mean it in the nicest way possible. Not trying to be a d*ck at all. It took me all of 2min on Thule's site to find what parts I would need to search for.

havent received the matterhorn rack yet. just ordered last week. if you could spare a bit more money i would say go with them.
I was looking at maxxhaul/arksen/curt/baja/rola/load-megawarrior but considering the rockymtntracks anteres or matterhorn was slightly more in cost, i went with that.
Im happy i did as i plan on mounting an awning and find their rack style more functional for my needs.
Hit Flemster up. maybe might steer you that route.
