Meet "Fat Amy" my Amazon Green 200 Series

Is Grogan running that also?

 

[ntsaint]

Yup.

Good thread about the 200 and FrontRunner. What's on their site now is shorter than the one Nolen and I run. But they will make them to any length you want. They've also changed the mounting system to bring the rack down closer to the roof.

Here's a pic of an 80 with the slat above the sunroof left out. I probably would've left off the next slat forward as well. But you can see the concept.

What vendors carry them? Price?

Some complaints on 200 thread about wind noise.

 

[Bomar]

You will always have wind noise especially if you want to use sunroof.

 

[ntsaint]

if I remember right that's why they went to the new feet, which are supposed much better on the 200s and other trucks.

My 100 has never had a wind noise issue, even with the old feet.

@Bomar is right...sunroof open = lotsa noise

wind noise from a roof rack? OMG NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MEMCruiser]

I have never opened the sun roof in my 200. If I could I'd have it welded closed. There's noise and there is unbearable noise. When I was first getting into yoda I test drove a Fj Cruiser with that big factory RR and by the time I got to 30 mph couldn't take it.

 

[wngrog]

It's nuts how you can't hear the rack with the roof closed but it's so loud when open.

Sunroof.

What a redneck.

 

[wngrog]

Roof racks are the ultimate poser item. No expedition rig should be without one.

Cameron is clearly a poser and a fag.

If you can hear wind noise from your roof rack you ain't runnin the right tire. Go see WCT49 immediately!

WCT can't hear over the sucking sound coming from that toilet bowl thing on the fender.

You have problems with wind noise but travel 400mph at your desk?

 

[MEMCruiser]

There is no wind noise to be heard over the bloviating of the capt. which will hopefully be me from now on. Geez, wish I had never mentioned anything about the 200 comment on wind noise.

Really as long as my kids can hold on up there I don't give a s*** about the wind noise from the rack.

 

[wngrog]

Frontrunner sells awesome straps called Scratchets.......they will hold your kids up there. Easily.
