Question:
Hello, I was interested to know if there are any small rooftop carriers out there. I am hoping to find something that can fit on the back of my 1997 Toyota 4Runner roof rack, behind my Yakima bike rack. Something under 36inch should work. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
It looks like your Yakima 2-bike rack is too long to allow a roof cargo box to fit behind it. Only possible solution would be to use two individual bike racks on either side of a smaller cargo box like this Yakima RocketBox Pro 14 # Y07192 that you referenced. This box is 33 inches wide so it would pretty easily allow bikes to fit on either side of it.
Then for a roof bike rack you could use the Yakima ForkLift # Y02098 which is a similar style fork-mount rack that you currently have which is also pretty narrow so it doesn't take up much room.
