    Looking to install a frontrunner 3/4 slimline roof rack on my 4runner ORP. Anyone have issues with leaking or obnoxious wind noise?

    Because it sits further back and sits lower than most any other rack, its quiet, but you will still here it with crosswinds and strong head. All racks make "some" noise.

    How much silicone do you have to use? I’ve seen some people put it over even the holes when the bracket bolts in. I can put up with some wind noise. I’m mostly afraid of leaks. Thanks for the input. This helps.
