    As I hit about 20 mph a LOUD harmonic whistle could be heard in the cab. After scratching my head for a few realized air was coming over the windshield and between the light bar and the bar mount. Ran pipe insulation between the bar and the light. Quite as can be now.

    Hey thats a good idea! never seen that.

    Your truck is looking killer man. Gonna put a light bar on the top of my Tundy, cant decide if I wanna do a 50" SR2 (doesnt whistle as much as the dual rows) or 54" RDS
