  1. Adding More Weatherstripping - Tackling Road Noise

    I followed this MIC wind noise reduction guide a while back and, although it greatly reduced the noise from the top, it also left me noticing the road/exterior noise a bit more now. It seems quite a bit of noise leaks through the doors and windows. Don't think I can do much about the windows...

  3. Window malfunction opening on fwy with high wind speeds

    Has anyone else had this issue before? I was coming home from a 6+ hr road trip with high wind speeds on the freeway and my driver side window started popping out of the seal on the top outer edges and rattling on my 2dr bronco. Crazy wind noise. I pulled over a few times to pop it back inside...
  4. MIC Hard Top Wind Noise Reduction - 2023 Edition - Plus Bonus Fix for Bad Adhesive

    Like many, I plan to use my long-awaited Bronco for long road trips. Like slightly fewer, I'm a bit of an NVH snob. I've had the dash off my Mustang probably 10 times searching for rattles and lining everything with felt and double-sided tape before it was silenced to my liking. My Bronco...
  5. 20k miles later still loving this ride

    Road trip from Fort Worth, TX to Bend, OR complete. Stopped and took some pics outside of Colorado Springs on the way home. The Wyoming winds really put the hardtop to the test. To say the least the music was cranked up to mute all the noise lol Other than that it did great both on and off road...
  6. Wind noise due to Window Gap?

    I have noticed a wind “leaking in” type sound near the drivers left ear. It’s been driving me crazy. I’m nearly 100% certain is the upper corner of the glass not fully sealing properly. It sounds like there’s a very small hole that lets air in if you’re going 60+. I believe I found the culprit...
  7. MIC Noise Reduction Guide - wind sound- aka more (or less) cowbell please

    So, we know these are Built Wild... but my wife didn't appreciate it sounding like a hurricane everyday. Who wouldn't want to hear the subtle guitar, bass, drums and notes of your favorite music on the sound system for which you paid? After reading 4+ threads and looking at various modifications...
  8. 7MT Badlands Noise at Low Speeds?

    Hey guys - I have a 2.3L 7MT 2DR Badlands that was built the week of 4/25/2022. Ever since I got it with 7 miles on the odometer, it’s made this unusual sound at low speeds and I can’t figure out if it’s normal or not. It kind of sounds like an air suction / wind noise or something to that...
  9. Additional sound deading and quieting highway road noise

    inb4 anyone says "it's an off-road rig, it's not supposed to be quiet!" - I understand that, doesn't mean we can't try to mitigate it somewhat :) I'm sure we've all seen the reviews about wind noise above 65. Hard top vs soft top are about the same, though hard top might be easier to try and...
  10. Hard Top + Roof Rack = Tornado Wind Noise

    Ok I'm going to keep this quick - Ive had my 4dr 2.3 MT Badlands with the MIC hard top and roof rack for about 3500 miles now and I can say without a doubt the wind noise in this truck is as loud or louder than anything I've ever taken on the highway (including a soft top 1969 GTO). I test...
  11. Hard or Soft Top? They Both Have Issues...

    I'm getting ready to place my order this week. I want both the hard and soft tops. Last week I test drove a Bronco with both a hard and soft tops. Although thoroughly impressed with both Broncos I was underwhelmed by how much wind noise I heard in the hard top Bronco. My 2005 Jeep LJ's hard...
