I'm pretty sure Northern Wrangler runs limb risers with his.

Don't know about the rotopax.

True, only guy I've seen post pics of them.

Hey are any of you guys with the Stealth rack having soft top flapping issues? I went without the air deflector for a while, and it was loud but I didnt really care that much. But I put on the deflector the other day, and now instead of wind noise I have ridiculous flapping which is much more annoying. I have to keep the windows cracked just to be able to deal with it. Another thing is that my wind deflector looks a lot different than the pictires Ive seen. It looks like it covers less area. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Has anyone tried the new mini wind deflectors that Gobi has on their website? I got the pool noodle in place and a few other small pieces of pipe insulation but it would be nice if these mini deflectors helped, too.

I just switched my lightbar out from the stealth to the stealth recon with the smaller deflector. Honest opinion, seems to have reduced the wind noise on the leading edge, but added to the flapping in the rear.

Can you post a full photo of the new light bar with the smaller deflector on the Jeep? I'm trying to install the smaller deflector onto my recon but the brackets I have won't allow me to. I've tried every possible combo. I may have the first gen light bar? Thanks!
