    Does anyone have issues with the annoying wind noise the rack makes when driving faster than 60mph?

    I’m planning on adding the wind fairing soon.

    Any suggestions would be great! TIA!

    What is the overall size of the rack? 60"x48"?

    I’ve been thinking on getting this roof rack myself, 3/4 Front Runner, but I think the wind fairing is a must…

    Please post your findings if the wind fairing helps or not…

    I have the same rack with a tent on it. Wind noise gets bad in windy conditions over 70mph, but not terrible. It comes with a wind fairing. Try moving it closer together, it’s two separate pieces, or further apart. Having had to mess with mine after install but that’s what the instructions said could help
