Roof Rack for 1992

I want an affordable roof rack for a 1992. I do not want to have to drill the roof. What options do I have? I want something secure that can't be removed at your local parking lot (also).

The easiest thing would be an aftermarket roof rack that has rain gutter attatchments. Other than that finding a wreck 4runner with fqactory roof rack and taking that off.

I dont see any slots or anything on my roof... and given that I do not want to drill... isn't my only option one that goes by the doors? Brand and model anyone?

Can I use the Thule Aero 400 feet? If so what Bars should I get then? LB65 or are those too big? Or would it be the LD58? Or the LB41? If I plan on using a basket... will I need the bars to support the basket?

I will measure my bars tomorrow and try to see what kind of "feet" it has. The cross bars and feet came w/ the runner so I don't know what they are. The basket needs some kind of crossbars to attach itself to. They are universal mounts that will attach to just about any crossbar.

My bars measure 50" and the feet have no visible markings on them. I will investigate them further.

Thanks, the actual lift bj spacers, coils, and panhard drop bracket was about $150. I don't remember how much all the shocks were. I'm guessing another $350 or so for the shocks and steering stabilizer.

I got on the Thule website and it came up with these options for a 4runner without a factory rack.

I see thule stuff on ebay all the time, you could always use this to find out what to be on the lookout for. Hope this helps.
