It probably is the crossbars, especially if they're empty. You can try moving the first one farther back and play with the positioning, which can help sometimes. There's lots of variables involved in noise/resonance: position of the crossbar, vehicle rake, load on the crossbars, etc.

The only sure way to prevent it is a fairing. If you need one send me a PM and we'll help out.

You will see once you try installing. It is kind of a PIA to get those underneath T bolts held in place with your hand!

Reach out if you have questions! Its usually pretty straightforward. T nuts can be challenging, but there's a few tricks too. A lot of times you can assemble the T nut and bolt and drop it through the slot on the fairing, rotate 90 degrees, then drop it through the slot on the crossbar and then just tighten.

HAHA! Wow, why did I not think of this when installing!!! Hardest part was just getting that thread started!

I only used it for installing the two center nuts and bolts of the fairing. They can be difficult to install because of the distance from the side of the truck and the angle of reaching under the cross bar while balancing the nut on your fingertips. I stuck the nut on the tape, aligned it with the hole, and threaded the bolt from the top. It makes it easier to get the bolt started in the nut. Once the bolt is started you can reach with your fingers to keep the nut from spinning as you tighten it up.

Getting ready to pull interior panels and roof rack.
I noticed some vibration / rattle at 80 / 85 mph on my steel crossbars with fairing. Don't notice it at lower speeds. Probably just need to check the tightness of the hardware.

Should I be able to mount a crossbar in one mounting hole in the side rails (see red square in pic)? Currently, the carriage bolts just barely do not fit. They go in but the square part of the bolt makes the bolt slightly pop out and not sit flush. I could get non-carriage bolts and it would fit, but if there is a structural or safety reason for not being able to use one hole, I would not want to do that. Moreover, the bolts provided should fit.

@LFD I purchased two aluminum cross bars a few months back and get noise at 70+ mph unloaded. I have a fairing on the front, but not the rear. Any help would be appreciated!

If the second one is way back from the front the air could be dirty again by then. Move it up some.

Anyone have any experience with the minimalist roof rack? I just ordered mine and haven’t seen a ton of reviews. Love to hear some opinions/issues/etc

Can someone get a measurement from the roof to the top of the LFD crossbars please? I have LFD crossbars on my OEM rack now and I am looking at getting LFD siderails, but I don't want to lose any more overhead clearance if possible.

Thanks!

Neither is wide like the bar you have shown. You could buy another wide bar and add the fairing to it if you want the same width.

I've got one sitting in the garage, need to get it on today.

Also my LFD bumper should be in queue here soon.
