Soft top sound deadening aftermarket

[BroncoOB]

I love the soft top but hoping someone has an attachment to help lower the noise. Is there an aftermarket product that provides sound deadening for the soft top?

Plus once in a while, I need to slam the doors to avoid having wind noise, anyone else noticed the same.

I saw someone share a product on here that was essentially that. A tarp like thing that went under thr soft tip. It's name was something like rough dog or rowdy dog. It looked pretty good. I think the cost was around d 300 bucks or so.


Edit: Yacktopus got it right.

Dirtydog 4x4 like others have said. Their insulation blanket was great on the base squatch I had.

Thanks, reading it and it seems to have good feedback.

That insulating blanket looks pretty good. I bought the bestop Bimini which has the support bar behind the front row of seats and simply sandwiched a foam mattress pad between the Bimini and soft top. This solution works extremely well (surprisingly)... It really does cut down on the wind noise over the drivers head. You also still get the benefit of being able to use the Bimini (just grab the foam pad and roll it up when you take the top down) - not sure you can do that with the insulating blanket.

I have a GearShade top. Stuffed a $10 comforter between the shade and soft top. Cuts down on highway noise a ton and easy to take off if I want to open the top.

Bonus… the actual sun shade is great. $200 all in.

Looking on the GearShade site for the one with the Bronco logo with no luck

Yeah, uh, well, there’s a way to submit a photo and a box that needs to be checked.

I haven't done it yet, but I plan to put a comforter on top of my bimini cover to help reduce wind noises.

I have a Gear Shade also and putting a blanked caused it to sag.

I did the same thing, except I put a 2" foam mattress up there. Works great, and when that mattress is not there, it is loud as f**k

Same, I actually have 3 of our sleeping bags up there. Saves storage space while camping in winter, adds insulation.
Some sagging of the mesh top, but not bad with the weight evenly distributed.

Mine sags too. I might buy a lighter comforter but honestly don’t even notice anymore. It’s minor and still plenty of head room. The difference in noise is dramatic. I bet it’s quieter than the hard top, maybe by a lot.

Like others have said Dirtydog 4x4 insulation mat. Just installed last weekend. Should’ve done way sooner. $250.
