We took our 2021 High Altitude Gladiator on a 1800 mile road. Has anyone installed the interior roof panels? If so do they help reduce highway noise ?
Any input would be appreciated
...compare in a test drive of a different vehicle. Also considering there's more than just the top that can be changed, like adding headliners or similar. Was hoping to get more specific examples of what works to reducenoise.
So a total difference of 12 db with everything? That's pretty...
Up-front: I currently have a soft top and am considering changing to a hard top to reducenoise. How much of a reduction can be achieved, and how?
As usual, I get the itch to buy new trucks when I ride in one. The other day I rode in a brand new F150 Raptor and it is quite the comfortable ride...
While that makes sense, the airflow moving through the radiator evacuates below the engine, where there is much more capacity for air flow volume than what is being brought through the radiator.
Without some sort of wind tunnel, a clear hood, and smoke test, it's hard to validate any of this...
Even if these scoops managed to force air into the engine compartment, they would be counter-productive. The vast majority of the engine's cooling comes from airflow through the grille-mounted heat exchangers (radiators). To promote airflow through the grille, you need to reduce air pressure...

Opting for the OEM headliners, they cover the whole back section of the topper along with the typical upper coverage and drastically reduce cabin noise. My JT is no worse than my Taco was, better for road noise.
Aftermarket, probably my dead pedal for interior. I'm often coming back from some...

Just installed a Hot Heads liner in my JL's Sunrider this week. Five hour drive yesterday to the beach on both highway and rural roads, headliner performed 100% as advertised...muffled wind and road noise and with 90 degrees outside, it seemed to help a lot with thermal insulation. High...
Assuming they can find and fix the situation on mine, I've been thinking about that as well. It really is a killer in there with that thin black fabric. There are days we get UV warnings and just being outside for a while you feel like you are in the mountains with 90 degree air temps. It was...
I have noticed that with mine, it does allow more heat inside than the Freedom Panels does. It is almost like being in a car from the '70s with T-tops on a sunny summer day. I open it whenever I can during the time I have it on, which is from late March until sometime in November. I have...

The company claims -3 to -6 db reduction and it is noticeable. Cuts down the wind noise a bit but it will never be like riding in a Lexus or similar luxury vehicle when it comes to interior noise levels.
Heat reduction is also noticeable. I am tall at 6'3" and my head notices that there is no...
I decided to try the 3Wliners floor mats in our 2023 JT Mojave. Our JT came with the carpet floor mats, which had started looking horrible. It was difficult to remove dog hair without a lot of time spent at a carwash with a high-power vacuum. It was about impossible to clean them adequately...
Highway noise is a common complaint with the Gladiator, and adding sound deadening can make a huge difference.
For the roof, a headliner is one of the best upgrades you can make. Our Hothead Headliners feature a 3-layer design with a built-in radiant barrier, reducing road noise and improving...
