Yes, I think that would work. I believe except for the length of the rails the Suburban roof racks are the same as the trucks. I can't easily find the Suburbans with factory roof racks in the junk yards. And it seems to me the chrome feet on the Suburbans are almost always in bad shape with pitting and road rash. I think since they ride on top instead of behind the cab they get extra wear. I think the Jeep Grand Wagoneers got better quality chrome than the Suburbans.
