Expert Reply:

For the largest roof cargo basket that is designed to fit raised factory rails on your 2005 Chevy Suburban, I recommend the Surco Safari Rack 5.0 Rooftop Cargo Basket for Factory Rails - 84" Long x 50" Wide # SPS5084-1101. The Surco Safari comes with a 250 pound maximum weight capacity and comes with the ability to add a ground kit # SP1114 for additional surface area. If you need straps for your cargo, I recommend the etrailer Cam Buckle Cinch Straps w/ Buckle Protectors - 1" x 13' # E98876-4.

As with all cargo baskets, I recommend confirming with your vehicle's owner's manual to make sure that your roof can handle the weight you wish to transport.
