Any recommendations for material to use as flooring for my SD roof rack?

Farmtek chicken coop flooring. Non-overlaping. 4 sections IIRC.

Yup, that's it. Here's a thread on an installation: Farmtec chicken coop roof rack flooring Installed

I suggest cutting out out some of the ribs before installation so that you can attach ratchet strap hooks to the rack cross bars.

Here's mine

SD offered/offers marine plywood as a flooring option. But, as standard, SD racks never came with flooring.

It's also horrible in comparison to the FarmTek chicken floor.

I did my sd rack with marine ply. it cost a 100 bux a sheet I used 1 inch marine ply. after shaping it to look like the flooring on the sd rack website. I used a varathane base on top of the wood then used a rey roll on bedliner to cover and add some some texture. you cant ell if it was factory or not by looking at the design.... I like this chicken stuff. tho. maybey after twenty years or so with the marine ply...ya never know.
