Need some advice on laying sod....

New house that we had graded from the builder with decent loam a month or so ago. Had that crazy hail/rain storm week immediately after which washed away all the good dirt leaving a rock hard clay mess with lots of rocks behind.

- Should I roto till it all (does it work good with clay and little rocks)?
- Then rake it smooth.
- Then add an inch or two on fresh loam.
- Then sod it immediately after within a day or 2 (to avoid loosing all the nice soil again).

Any advice would be great. Yard is massive or else I'd just manually rake it by hand.
