Default No Flex Bars

How much do you tighten them up? I am at 5 turns and still have some shake with the top out, any ideas?

Hi All,

I have the No Flex Bars wound up 5 turns and still getting cowl shake with the top out, how far should you go with them? I am showing about 4 threads past the jam nuts, any thoughts.

I have mine down to 2 threads in the rear and 3 in front. The process is to have the car on the ground w top off and measure distance from halo to windshield header. Then jack car up at the rear and measure again. Put wheels on the ground and tighten tension. Jack car up and measure. Keep tightening until measurement w wheels on the ground is the same as when jacked up.
