Gladiator Hard Top - Wind coming through?

[JfishKing]

Hey Guys,

I just picked up my mojvae last week and anytime i am over 30 mph there is wind coming through the hardtop... its driving me nuts. I am very familiar with the external wind noise when running a hard top as i had one on my JKU. I dont ever recall the wind coming through my jk hard top. I am about to go back to dealer, but wanted to check with you guys.... anyone else having this issue? prob just needs new weather stripping, but frustrating.

Interest to hear if u guys have same issue or mines messed up.

thanks k

Shouldn't be able to feel any wind. I had that problem with a door seal in my old Land Rover. My new JTR has no drafts. Some wind noise yes, but no drafts. Try running through a touchless carwash and see if you have water intrusion. Could help identify the location of the gap. Just my 2 cents

yeah man for a 60 k truck i aint doing squat... they can run with it, just wanted to make sure this not a bigger vehicle wide issue... it not okay, and should be a simple fix, appreciate you confirming you're not getting any air into cab.

Can you feel or hear exactly where it's coming through at? If it's on the front edge near the top of the windshield make sure all your hardtop panels are fully seated, I've seen people have issues with those.

No issues with mine! Pretty quiet with the windows uyp.

No drafts inside on mine. You might check that the hard top is fully seated and secured at each point if you haven't already.

Folding windshield wind leaks on every JT I test drove.
