Installed Prinsu Pro Roof Rack and Baja Designs 7 Linkable Light Bar

[Btimothy4]

Installed the set up over the weekend, still need to finish the wiring, but should be easy with the factory aux switches...

Super high quality, easy to put together. I decided to actually put the rack together on the truck, rather than building it on the ground and then lifting it on. Limited help at the house and my wife is pretty short
I have the Baja Lights from a Jeep I built and took off before selling.

It's very solid, but as you can imagine there is a fair amount of wind noise. Just the price you pay when you mess with the aerodynamics

Looks great!

Looks greet! I’m working on switching from the OEM rack to the Prinsu pro cause the oem rack vibrates really bad at 70mph. How’s the driving with your rack?

Honestly didnt notice any vibration, no rattle, whistles as I was going on the highway (75-80) The light bar mounts at each end of the rack and also in the middle - so no flex there either

The biggest is just the wind noise - while not horrible, I'm sure in part that because of the 7 BD lights and more surface area then a 40" low profile light

You can adjust with the mounts how close to the roof you want it to be. I had my roof wrapped like the TRD Pro and also added a PPF strip (highly recommend, got mine from TacoVinyl - perfect fit) on top of the black vinyl to protect and I set mine as low as possible with the front wind deflector firmly planted on the front side of the roof - not sure if that makes a difference or not

Ah good to know. Yeah wind noise is expected. Making the whole truck shake is not. Can’t wait to get them swapped out!

How did you end up getting this wired to the AUX switches?

KC makes a "wire hider" that basically creates a channel for the windshield. Sticks on with 2 sided tape. I ran one for years on my Rubicon and had zero issues with it coming loose.

You wont even notice it once you install it.

So down the windshield, under the wiper cowl and over to the aux plug by the radiator. Used the factory harness they give you and put it on the aux 1 switch

How much power is your bar drawing? AUX 1 looks like it's a 15A switch and Baja S8 bar is 16A. It worked for a little bit but now the main light isn't kicking on but the backlight feature works fine on AUX 2.

Looked it up and looks like it's 14A for that setup, so works perfect.
