Subject:      Vibrating westy top - follow-up

Thanks to all who responded to my note about high speed vibrating of my westy luggage rack after putting in a new rubber seal. Seems this is not an unussual problem.

Also as someone noted, it appears to happen only at high speed, with high winds at just the right angle. This past weekend I took a trip from NJ to Anapolis (several hours) and the vibration thing only happened once for a split second, while at the top of a windy bridge. I'm gonna try adjusting the top and the rubber -- I'll let you all know if I find a solution.

Happy trails!
