My suggestion is to rent a UHaul trailer. They would be a lot less expensive than a Suburban. All the latest 4Runners come with a hitch receiver and plug in wiring; all you would need is a ball mount and ball.
This.

A good cargo box is $400+, then add another $400 for good bars and towers because the factory crossbars are too low. If you ever want/need this gear in the future, buy it... If not, it is expensive and annoying to store.

That said, I have the Thule Force (large) with the aeroblade crossbars. I have driven thousands of miles with this setup with zero problems.

If you need additional height and rigidity on the cheap, get the LFD ruggedized crossbars. You'll likely clear the shark fin and can fit a roof box that won't work with the stock crossbars.
But they'll howl without a fairing and without the roofbox on....
edit- LFD makes a lead bar with an integrated fairing now, but that may force you to move the box back a few inches. Worth looking into though as an option!
