I finally got my rack installed on my 2-door and was able to mount my Roofnest Litewing 270 Awning (only 30lbs, it uses carbon fibre for the arms) using the TrailRax Low Profile 90 brackets. I did have to enlarge the holes on the brackets to use the Roofnest t-bolts. The TrailRax brackets come with drop/roll in nuts so you don't have to take the crossbars out to install the bracket. With the way the brackets are designed to sit on the ledge, the attached awning stayed in place while I bolted the bracket to the cross bars. I do think the 1/4 -20 bolts that come with the bracket are too short at 1/2" long, I tried 3/4" long ones and it seems to hold better.
And the rear glass can open fully without interfering with the Awning:
