Default Roof racks

My job requires me to move doors, plywood, drywall etc. Which roof rack would be best suited for my 2 door '09 JK? Any suggestions?

Yeah get a trailer for that stuff. I run a Gobi rack and loading and unloading stuff like that gets old quick and could end up hurting your back.

If your running a hardtop I would recommend the Frontrunner Slimline II. Nice flat surface for attaching anything you need.
