Subject:Luggage rack vibration
From:Steve Gough
Date:Fri, 27 Jul 2001 00:41:18 -0500

I recently removed and replaced the luggage rack on my '86 Westy.  Today,
at highway speeds, the thing began to vibrate and buzz with a noise to wake the 
dead.

I didn't replace any seals, just the tie-downs, which were rusted. At the front
of the rack, there is some space between the body and the rack, and I guess
air is getting between the two and causing this.  The archives weren't much
help (at least the last two years, which is all I can get without a time out).

Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance,

Steve
