Thanks to all. I just threw some 1/2"id (3/4"od) utitility hose from Lowes ($4 for 4 ft used 3-1/3) behind the weather seal with some liquid nails #1 foam and rubber glue ($3 for a tube, used almost all of it). Hihg winds today, plus 80 on the interstae, no lift whatsoever. It was really bad before, happened every time I went over 75.

I beg my jeep to get to 75, I dont see how you guys are reaching 85+. Perhaps it is my Central TX headwinds, but im scared of being blown off the road at 72ish. When I saw the white flex of the rubberbands and my safety latch catch at 77ish I have forever slowed down and just enjoy the ride. Of course with the BFG MTs on I cant hear myself think, which is significantly helping with the soft top noise
