Default Wind noice

I have a ton of wind noise from both my driver and passenger side windows. There is alot of play in the window frame when the window is rolled up into the seal area. When Im doing 55 or faster up can see the cap open up. I didnt know if there were some screws or something you could tighten up if the door panel was taken off. I mean when you open the doors & wingle the frame big time. But doesnt leak in the rain or a carwash, just nasty noise when driving. I have tried the weather strip material by placing it on the existing rubber seal, thinking that would create a tighter fit. Nope! Any info would greatly help me out.

I have it also. The body/doors, etc are pretty light on these rigs. All the weight is under the frame, etc. It's not bad, to the point where it bugs me, but it's pretty high pitched sometimes, hehe. Might drive a dog crazy..

its not really a high pitched sound in my case its like the window is cracked when it really isnt. it really hasnt bothered me until today i had a truck load of people. and with the wind noice everyone was screaming just to talk. I just hope if i take the door panel off there are some screws, or some nuts & bolts that can be tightened to stiffen back up the window frame.

I thought it was the window frame on mine, and it turned out to be the black piece of trim that goes from the roof to the top of the fender. My seal that was against the window came unglued. I still have wind noise, but it's a lot better than what I started with

There are a couple of screws on the outside of the door for the window frame. There is also one behind the door panel.
