Question:
Hi, Recently bought a 2021 Toyota 4Runner and need a roof rack. I will be using it for a Ski rack in summer and paddle board/Surf board in summer. My question is I have old Yakima round bars from pervious car, so looks like i would need just the new towers to attach to the cars rails I have also looked at the Malone AirFlow2 roof rack on your site. What are your impressions on the Malone vs using older yakima bars with new towers? Thanks for the help

Helpful Expert Reply:
For the money you really can't beat the Malone AirFlow 2 roof racks like the part # MPG215 that fits your 2021 Toyota 4Runner with raised roof rails. It's going to be more aerodynamic than the Yakima round bars and also comes with locks so if I were you I'd go with the Malone setup. I attached an install video for this rack on a similar 4Runner for you to check out as well.
If you wanted to complete your Yakima rack you would just need the # Y03536 and the # Y33TR.
