Re: Noise Reduction with Hard Top

From what I have read the hardtop actually makes the ride louder. It traps all the noise from the engine, and as all of us S2K drivers know, a bumpy ride produces alot of jolts and bangs, which the hardtop seems to trap as well. i don't really know what to tell you for trying to get a quieter ride... i know I have been thinking about getting an older truck, probably the price you will pay for the hardtop, and driving that when I want something a little easier going and less loud.

Let us know how it turns out for you.
