Didn’t think it was possible but seem to have actually improved the road noise by fixing some small issues with the hard top above the rear tire. Maybe it’s because I’m putting a 22 top on a 21, but there was a small gap between the top and the body around the alignment pin just behind the rear seat. I put some washers in to get a tighter connection at the front most cargo mounting bolt, and then used some rubber insulation across the bottom of the cargo underneath all the bolts. Noticed a modest improvement in road noise (Sasquatch) which makes sense. Didn’t do anything for that rooftop wind noise but I’ll take it. I did try other things in the wind noise DIY thread and haven’t had much luck (some of those things caused my top to sit higher and create more noise), but at least this gave me a small and decisive win. Thought I’d share.
