Have you checked the load rating for your roof? It may only be 150 lbs-300 lbs. If so, you'd have to build a frame to distribute the load to the sub-frame.

I have seen outbacks with these things mounted on the stock rails, and the RTT itself exceeds the capacity of the roof without even having a person in it. Just asking for trouble.
