Hank,
Are you looking for a hard rack, or a soft rack?

I had to change setups when I changed trucks recently. My Tundra has no rain gutters on it also. I use a Thule rack with some adapters for vehicles with no gutters. The adapter is formed in a way that the profile is very close to the door channel profile, which it tightens up against. When you tighten both ends of the rack it tightens inward drawing towards the center, and pulls both adapters into the door channel. When you close the doors, it's plenty solid. I have the Thule brand, but Yakima also makes them. Both are good brands, but I've always used Thule because of the warranty, so I stick with them.

Take Care,
Perry
