3rd Gen + FrontRunner rack + FR Table = problem

[John7M7]

Hi guys,

I just got a FrontRunner Outfitters Slimline II Roof Rack, and I love it! I also decided to get the rails that allow you to slide a table under the rack, between said rack and your roof.

Super convenient, but...

The issue is the noise. The table moves a little bit around, and bounces against the roof rack. The noise is really, really annoying. You just can't ignore it.

How can I fix that? There's a little bit of play in the brackets that hold the table, but is there a way to fix this issue? I need your creativity.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Here are links toward the rack, table, and brackets, so you understand exactly what I'm referring to:

(yes I don't have a Mercedes, but the rack is always the same)

I'll look that up.

I put rubberized tape on the frame of the table and it's now silent, but don't know how long that will last...

Which frontrunner rack / legs did you get. They don't make a specific one for the 3rd gens do they? Sorry, new to 3rd gens and would love to order a rack this weekend!

No they did a custom one for me as I stopped by the shop.
I have 50mm and 60mm legs, 6 total.

What mounting kit did you use? I live near the frontrunners store, and have yet to find one that works...

I really like this roof rack will you please give me the specifics on the correct legs to order. I don’t live near the front runner shop to have them make custom legs. Thank you in advance!
