Question:
I have a 2024 Kia Telluride with the raised rails along the sides of the roof but no crossbars across the middle. I am interested in using your MOS UpLift Roof Rack Lift Assist w/ Cargo Box to transport extra clothes on long trips but not sure what all I need. Is this something you can help with as I really like the lift assist function and have never seen this kind of set up before?

Yes, it is and I would be happy to help! To add a set of crossbars to your 2024 Kia Telluride, I recommend the Thule WingBar Edge Roof Rack for Raised Rails item # TH63ZA. These crossbars are going to be by far the best option to use the MOS UpLift Roof Rack Lift Assist w/ Cargo Box item # MR79ZV with. They do not extend past the raised rails on your Telluride's roof, which will look better and not be in the way.
The Thule WingBar Edge Roof Rack item # TH63ZA has a 165 lbs capacity which will include the 48 lbs of weight for the MOS UpLift item # MR79ZV. You will want to make sure the front and rear crossbar are separated by 20" to 39".
I have attached a couple of pictures below so you can see what the MOS UpLift Roof Rack item # MR79ZV looks like when set up. I have also linked the installation instructions so you can see how to get the roof rack and cargo box installed.
