    Installed air deflector 180 out for no reason at all but at least awning doesn't cover logo and set to lowest setting. This got rid of all wind noise even the whistle at 60+ mph I had when it was on the middle row holes. Been on for about 2 weeks now. Love it. Rotopax to come soon!

    Frontrunner is probably the highest quality alternative, also k9 and Rhino.

    Prinsu has a different style than those and is more modular.
    All three listed above are as good of quality racks or better, but it comes at a higher price and less customizable.

    So when is the next GB? Interested in 40" with deflector cut out.

    A guide on how to install this with punching holes in weather stripping and equipment needed for it would be niceeee.

    Im looking for a TopRack mounting solution for a Hi-lift and shovel on either side of the outside of the rack (much like an awning mount). FYSA - The awning mount won't work for my TopRack because I have the old style crossbars.

    Most of the awning company's use the same base, ie sliding channel with some carriage bolts. There are holes in the rack specifically for mounting an awning. May just have to get some longer bolts and some 1/4" spacers. Heres pics of mine. Which is a tjm awning which uses the same mounting base as the above awning.
