I've had the Terra Grapplers since January and I really like them so far.

Rack is very solid! got the ladder from them also. Very heavy powdercoat, which is nice. I did have to fiddle with the exact placement as my passenger door and driver door clear the drip railing at different heights...the mounts have to be just in the right location...sliding the rack back and forth until they cleared took about 15 min. to figure out.

I have the same rack, it's awesome. Solid powdercoat and great strength. Truck looks good!

Do you get much wind noise on the freeway from the Voyager rack?

Even without lights it's a bit noisier but not unbearable. I'm considering making a black aluminum piece of flashing for the front angle (much like Yakima baskets) and see if it helps with the wind noise. Great rack overall!!
