Hi Graeme,

Can you please elaborate on what you mean?

What is an example of a rack that is rigid and thus interfering with body flex? And how is the slimline 2 achieving the results whilst still having great load carrying capacity?

Thanks in advance. Andy.

Having driven in windy conditions the last few days and getting up to 130kph passing other vehicles, I can report the with the spare tyre on the rack there is definitely a whistle once up to 120kph and also general wind noise is noticeable too.

However at 110 or lower I actually hear the wind noise of the snorkel next to the driver's window above any roof rack wind noise.

Looking at an awning and favouring the foxwing or sunseeker from Rhino as have good add ons for side walls and even a tent (tagalong tent). Has anyone mounted one of these to the Frontrunner and if so did you get FR brackets or was it fine with what comes standard?

I'm fitting a Drifta Rapid Wing to my FR Slimline II and have ordered the Frontrunner Fox/Bat Wing mounts mainly because they fix to the rail and the slats, but will also allow me to fit an additional plate if I need to lift it slightly higher for rear door clearance.
