Show us a close up of how you attached the upper basket!
I made a frame out of square tubing that basically follows the same lines as OEM roof, then drops down for the basket. The gusset as it transitions down takes a lot of the credit for the strength. Four U bolts is all that is currently holding the hole thing on the frame. She's not quite done, but the support arms i plan to tie into seat belt anchor bolts should make it bomb proof.

Looks really slick. No matter what hobby I look into there are guys who go the extra mile and customize things. I am customize-deficient and admire what you all do. American ingenuity!

Appreciate it! Definitely helps that I work at a fabrication shop that can draw up and make just about anything I can think of.
