The Thule roof rack for your 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe will add about 5 inches and the Yakima roof rack will add about 4-1/2 inches of height to your vehicle. Here is what you need for either rack:

Thule
- Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Silver # TH711200 or Black # TH711220
- Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710601
- Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Roof Rack Feet # TH68FE
- (Optional): Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders # TH450400

Yakima
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Silver # Y00428 or Black # Y00425
- SkyLine Towers # Y53TR
- Landing Pad 19 # Y00245
- (Optional) Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores # Y07204

Between these two, I really like the Yakima system because it has the longer crossbars at 50 inches compared to the 47 inch Thule bars. This not only gives you a bit more space if you are hauling a bunch of gear, but can make it easier to load as the bars are a bit closer to edge of your Jeep.
