Default Squeaky Gobi

Folks,

I've had my Gobi stealth on for about 2 months now. This week, the rack has started to squeak going over medium sized bumps. Any Gobi owners have any experience dealing with this? I'm going to recheck all the bolts tomorrow but I was up on the rack earlier today standing and jumping on it and didn't see anything loose or out alignment.

I installed a gobi on my JKU about 6 months ago... Ladder Rack, Wind screen, Hi-Lift brackets. I re-tightened every bolt after about 200 miles along with adjusting the side bump stops out... The unit is very quite - I expected noise from it but that's not my case... Great unit!

what do you mean by side bump stops?

The rubber bump stops on the rear quarter panels with the adjustment screws... Make sure you remove any play side to side with them.
