Expert Reply:
When you install a roof rack on a vehicle you have to use the locations that the rack manufacturer recommends. They test the fit of the rack on the vehicle and know exactly where the strongest part of the roof is.
I attached a picture that shows where to install the Rhino Rack part # RRVA150B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK043 on the roof of a similar Ram as yours.
