I'll tell you what I did.

Using Yakima rack supports and 3/4" pipe, I built my own roof rack, upon which I could put anything.

Doing it that way meant I did not have to find any roof support. I used the aluminum frame that runs along the tops of my walls. I simply put down a long (2', I think) steel strip for extra strength and then drilled through that and secured the rack support to that. This was plenty strong enough.

I now have a multi-purpose 8' wide roof rack.
