Hi Robert,
I  am using the Outdoorsman bed rack with the cab bar on the cab. This is the one 
making the noise.  I will try those fixes along the way including a slanted wind 
deflector in the front from the cab roof up and over the platform covering the 
spare etc. That should really be the thing the produces noise but in theory may 
smooth things out. Thanks for the advice.

< Looking at purchasing a 2001 Tundra 4X4 limited for a tow vehicle. 
< Any experience out there.  Have a 69 Caravel and a SOB tri axle (

Hi Daniel,
I have a Tundra and tow a 62' Safari 22'.  I love the truck and it is a good match 
with with the size of this trailer. Not too small, not to big,  just right. Still 
have not gone to any weight distributing tow bar system and no problems. Any more 
ball weight or a longer trailer and I think it would call for it. Hope that helps.
