    Has anyone tried to park their truck in the garage after the roof rack was mounted?

    I was wondering how much clearence they had and if their truck was stock height or lifted?

    Haven't mounted mine yet, but based on measurements I should have about 2 in of clearance. About 3" of lift with 265/70/17 tires

    Anyone having vibes with the rack? I'm having severe vibration from the front of mine going about 70mph. I have the 40" cutout deflector mounted on the bottom two holes. Any suggestions?

    Honestly, it may be those brackets you fab'd up and the light bar. I mounted mine to the first crossbar and have the fairing on the middle two holes with zero wind noise so far

    I see you're running your deflector in the middle two holes instead of the bottom two like me. That may be it, too. Are those stock brackets on that Morimoto you have?

    They are. I mounted them horizontally instead of vertically. That only left one screw hole to work with, but I can't move it at all by hand. I've heard a lot of people say that the bottom two are the best, but I only used the middle ones so that everything was flush. Is your light bar touching your fairing?

    No, my light bar sits absolutely perfect and it's really solidly mounted. I just think that the fairing is too low, resulting in my first cross bar sitting above the fairing exposed. When I looked up at the rack through my sunroof the first crossbar was vibrating like crazy, so maybe it's just catching too much wind. I'm going to set it up like you have yours tonight and see if that helps. Everything else is tight so I have no idea what could be causing it other than needing to adjust the deflector

    What are y'all using to keep the wires in place down the windshield?

    Mine are moving all over the place scuffing the A pillar.

    Is everyone running a led light bar using the thin design bar?
    If so I've decided I'm going to do the same but ordered the non cutout wind deflector.

    Can you guys tell me the dimensions that are cut out on the cut out deflector for a 40 in light bar.

    I'm obviously pretty sure on width but want sure how deep the cut is being the deflector sits on an angle.

    Thanks.

    Dynatrac ProRock 60 Rear Axle, that is important enough.
    I have a set of the 3x2 pods and a 30" 4D bar that I put behind the lower valence. Both are really great from what I can tell. I plan on taking the truck out to the country to get some better night shots this weekend and can really tell how they are then. But I do like them a lot for the price.

    I think all the stock antennas scrape even with no lift. They are like a foot taller than the roof top.

    Good idea. I got sick of the scraping and got a short one. Getting new tires and suspension soon. Will see what happens.

    Well I mounted mine just like yours and instead of having vibes at 70mph now they're at 40mph. I'm so bummed

    When you say "just like" mine, do you mean you moved the fairing or you moved everything? I'm telling ya man, I got zero wind noise with both the wind fairing and light mounted as they are. Do you have the bulb seal around the bottom of your fairing?
