Around 78 MPH there is a noise - like I'm driving on rumble strip on side of road.
When I slow down to 76-77 MPH, the sound goes away.
Sounds like it is coming from the front passenger side.
Happens with hard top on, soft top closed and open.
Stock all terrain tires on a Gladiator Rubicon.
Trying to figure out if its a wind noise, tire or something else.
Thanks,
Shawn

You might check your inner-fender liners. Some have had theirs rubbing at speed and getting chewed up. You might be experiencing the same.

I had a similar issue at speed with my Hellcat rear fender liner. Made a heck of a racket over 100 mph. Couple snips with a sharp knife fixed it for me.

Thanks,

I do see that its pretty flimsy material. No signs of rubbing at this time, it may be the wind getting caught at higher speeds.
Will try to get out and experiment with it.
