As far as a roof rack with the lowest added height that does not require drilling on your 2021 Ford Ranger with a bare roof, I recommend the following setup:

- Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 53" # TH711420
- Evo Clamp Feet for Thule Crossbars - Naked Roofs # TH710501
- Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp Roof Rack Feet - 5063 # TH145063
- (Optional for theft deterrence) Thule Same-Key Locks # TH450400

With this setup, you will have an added height of about 4 inches to the top of your crossbar. Also, you will have a maximum weight capacity of 165 pounds. In order to make sure that your roof can handle that much weight, I recommend confirming that weight with your owner's manual. After you have the crossbar system installed, you will be able to transport accessories and cargo on your 2021 Ford ranger.
