Dude, I cannot seem to find what I'm looking for at all! I want a 60" cargo basket that attaches to my factory roof rack, and one with off road lights attachments. But no matter what combination of words I put in to eBay/craigslist/bing, it never brings up what I'm looking for. Does any one know what exactly they're called, and does anyone have one on their Expy that I can see???

Try looking for "safari baskets" or "safari racks". You might have to add the lights separately, but I'm not sure.

Here is my Yakima load warrior (with the extension) on my expedition, that has since been moved to the camper. The wind on the rack's wind deflector was making the sunroof act funny, and sounded like it was open all the time, unless I shut it a bit past "home" if you will. When I moved the basket, noise gone.

The standard basket is 44"x39"x6.5”. I then added 18" to its length. On my previous truck, a 99 Cherokee, I had 2 extensions added, making it a total of 80x39x6.5". The trick was that I had a three cross-bar setup on that truck, so it was well supported.
