how is the wind noise with your new rack. The websites minimal increase.

 

Wind noise is minimal. When I listen to my music, i can’t even hear it. There was an issue in the beginning, the center of the front wind deflector would vibrate on top of the roof at speeds over 68mph. I put a rubber piece from Home Depot to fill in the gap, and it fixed the problem

 

Sorry, I didn’t catch what rack this is.

 

this is the upTop overland rack for the 110.

 

not my car but it is. I love that you can order with lights built into the wind fairing.

 

I also have a set of OEM 110 roof rails that I'm looking to get rid of. If interested send me a PM. They are already boxed up, so I can easily get a shipping quote.

 

Thanks. I thought it was uptop but only saw the more complicated looking alpha version. I like yours a lot more. Is that the bravo? Didn’t see they had that available for the 110. Like it without the handles and extra stuff on the alpha.

 

Any updates on solutions to this? Went to take them off today with an induction heater, impact and patience and the front passenger bolt turns in the rivnut.

I also tried the drilling and pinning solution and that didn’t capture the rivnut either.

I don’t want to Swiss cheese the roof.

Any ideas?

 

I am working on this process in preparation for the install of my prospeed rack. The last of the parts should be here soon. I decided to start working on the removal of the front four bolts as that is all that is needed for the rack. The front two on both sides came out fine without heat. Just worked them back and forth until they came out. The back two are very tight and I am afraid will spin if I am not careful. I plan to heat them and see about getting them out. Will try a soldering iron as I only have to do two. Or a micro torch which I tried earlier today and can be contained to just the bolt head. Hopefully all will work out fine.

I do have a question I am hoping someone will know the answer to. Being I am not removing the rail I just had to pry up the front plastic cover. In doing so the amazing JLR clips broke. Does anyone know the part number for the four small white plastic clips that hold this trim piece down?
