New to the Forum and a new Jeep owner so pardon my ignorance on most things Jeep. I came on for the sole purpose to find a roof rack that would work with the Power One Touch. Cross Bars Specifically. Yakima seemed to be the only ones that advertised compatibility so I gave them a go.
As you can see from the first pic, I used the spacers so that the roof could fully open while the racks were installed, but in my opinion they were way too tall. Didn't like the look and felt that once I added a cargo box or Snowboard racks the drag would be too much. I took the spacers out (second picture) and the look is a lot better but I have found that it is REALLY Loud. I think primarily because of the soft top.
Have any of you found an optimal placement on the roof that lessens the noise factor? In addition, have any of you found that some Cargo Boxes or quieter than others? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
