Question:

I am considering a Thule roof rack system on my 2022 Ram 1500. I need the shortest system you have because of the garage door height. I am looking to install the rack system and then the Thule fly rod holder. I have a 7” tolerance to make it work. Thanks for your help

I checked with Thule and the Thule WingBar roof rack, item # TH711520, # TH710501, and # TH145106 will add right at 5-1/2" to the top of your 2022 Ram 1500. This is our shortest option for your truck and it will eat up most of your 7" of tolerance.

This roof rack will provide you with a set of 60" aero crossbars with a 165 lbs capacity.

I have attached a couple pictures below that will give you an idea of what this system will look like.

The Thule Rod Vault for 4 rods item # TH87YV and for 2 rods item # TH27YV are both 8" tall.
