Mine is the Barricade roof rack from extremeterrain.com and it has a basket on it from Amazon. The roof rack is very good. I go to Moab like 20 times a year and this thing has been so awesome. It looks cool (I have had people stop me on the street to ask where I got it) and it's super tough and adds a ton of storage to the TJ. I installed mine alone in about 3 hours. It's a good purchase.
Some pics of the rack in use:

I’ve been using this one for several years. It’s been great. I have a 17 foot scanoe and I t’s plenty wide enough. I secure it with a couple ratchet straps and tie it up front through one of the tie down points. I’ve driven several hours with it up to about 80 mph.

I was going to include a picture of the rack with my boat on it, but I can’t figure out how to do it.
