All these suggestions without knowing what kind of noise OP is talking about.

OP it would help if you tell us what kind of noise you’re hearing.

So weird to see this in my feed today. Yesterday I noticed a rattling coming from my roll bar area just above my left ear. I reseated the panel latches, hit the seatbelt mount, cussed softly at it, no dice. I’m sure I’ll tear into it soon.

Thanks for the suggestions and comical comments. Always enjoy the humor. :LOL: The noise sounds like someone playing a bad note from a flute, hard to drown out by turning up the music.

What are the torque values for the bolts for the rear part of the top? I just had my top off the other day and I tightened them pretty snug by hand but didn't use a torque wrench to check them.

I normally go with german spec. Gudentite. Or, one or two ugga duggas from my 1/4'" drive impact.

Whistling noise resolved. The windshield was replaced last February with MOPAR windshield at the dealer. At some point the top right corner of the windshield lifted slightly. Windshield installer stated that it was probably due to door being slammed shut before the windshield sealant was set. The noise started when the weather warmed up and driving at higher speeds. Took the Gladiator to the dealer and they reset the windshield, which fixed the problem. :clap:

I'm glad you got it resolved! I'm sure that was frustrating trying to figure it out.
