Narrower Cargo Box Recommendation for Fitting Next to Kayak Rack
Question:
Hi, I have a 2008 4Runner and Im currently using the the JayLow kayak carrier to mount 2 kayaks, which fit pretty snug on one side of the roof. I would like to add a rooftop cargo box on the opposite side of the roof and was wondering what my options are. I want the cargo box to be functional when the kayaks are mounted, so maybe something smaller and narrow. Do you have any suggestions for me? I have a attached a picture for reference. Thanks,

For a narrower cargo box we have the Thule Pulse Alpine part # TH613 which is 25-1/2 inches overall wide. Now that said the mounting brackets are more towards the middle of the box like you can see in the attached picture so this should be able to fit with bar space of around 20 inches or so. How much bar space do you have currently?
