Helpful Expert Reply:
It sounds like you have some fixed mounting points on your 2009 Subaru Tribeca that can be used to mount a roof rack system.
For your vehicle, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Roof Rack System. This system consists of # RRVA137B-2 for the two 54 inch Vortex Aero Crossbars, # RRRLKVA for the 2500 Legs that will mount to the fixed points on your roof, and # DK410 for the Custom DK Fit Kit. This will provide you with a sleek, extremely quiet system that has a weight capacity of 165 pounds.
I have attached the installation instructions, along with a video demonstration that you can take a look at.
