I’m definitely aware of the second click to fully engage 👍🏻 They are still not as solid as when I first got them unfortunately

I had to climb up on the roof to press them extremely hard down to hear the 2nd click so the door closes fully😂

I’ll give that a shot👍🏻

On mine, that door will close firmly if you put a little weight on it - mine was loose like yours, pushed it from above and the tab clicked in. Try it!

Also for mine i got all the covers down by pressing the cover closed and then pushing down with all my weight. The reason the doors dont close is the bars arent seated fully. Doing the allen key adjustment will work though.@@ChargeOverland

I’ve developed some 3d printed parts that are working well - I’ll be doing a video on them soon!

Few people have reached out about this and I’m aware of the second click but in this case the crossbar is still showing some wobble unfortunately. Thanks for the tip though!

I was actually considering doing this! Good to hear it’s fairly simple👍🏻

Happy to help!

Echoing this sentiment. You have to click the door in and it should click twice. The second one, you really need to press hard, but once it clicks the hood doesn’t stick out at all. It’s flush and it doesn’t rattle one bit.

I’m definitely aware of the second click required to lock it into place by pressing down firmly on the latch cover (my bad for not covering this in the video). These worked properly at the beginning but have started to develop this rattle over a year and a half of use. For sure good for people to remember it’s not locked in until it clicks twice though👍🏻

I've had this issue as well. Sometimes it helps to lift up slightly as you push the latch in for the second click.

This isn’t the rattle issue being discussed here, it’s the door covering the lock. In the video it’s described as not closing properly, and that’s because it’s not latched correctly, and not just the door, but the crossbar itself isn’t positioned correctly to latch perfectly.

@@westhefarmer That is what I am describing as well. I just had it happen to me yesterday. I'm assuming the cold temps are affecting the fit. I couldn't get it to close the door and it would rattle. I found that lifting up slightly on the crossbar as I closed the door for the second click helped to get it to close/latch properly. I'm not saying this will work for every scenario, but wanted to mention it just in case it could help someone else.

Thanks for watching🙌🏻

Thanks!

That’s pretty low haha - I generally see a little above 2 for daily driving

I generally have kept recovery boards and an awning up there - looking at possibly putting solar panel(s) as well. Really depends on how much stuff you want to take - I wouldn’t say the roof storage is a necessity by any means. The truck definitely has plenty of storage on its own👍🏻

Yeah I agree - Unfortunately it’s not set up in a way where you could position it that far back

I prefer the look of the Caprock or Pioneer Platform over the Xtrusion rack but they are all pretty solid choices

Agree it’s a bit strange! But yes it definitely is installed correctly based on how Thule has designed it. Most other platforms I’ve seen have the wind deflector positioned as you’re mentioning.

It’s noticeable but not bad! Honestly I think the biggest drawback is the range hit

I’ve been developing a 3d printed part just haven’t been quite ready to share a video on it :) Cutting a yoga block is a pretty cool DIY solution 👍🏻

@@ChargeOverland yeah best of luck on that. You should start an aftermarket products company!

check out overland ruff rax or front runners options

Yup @brinkhouse listed the few I know of 👍🏻

Of course! I’m running the Falken Wildpeak A/T4Ws - recently posted a full review on them👍🏻

I definitely like the look of the Overland stuff Rax 👍🏻

Very true..

Weight is money. Just ask any trucker. 😄
