I just bought an air deflector that is 64" by 34" and will be bolting it to my trailer in front of the tire rack. You've seen these deflectors on big diesel trucks, kind of looks like a big snow board.
I might have to move the tire rack back 6 inches to get the rake I want, but here is my question? Is it better to mount it low or high? I can mount it on the trailer A frame, directly behind the triangle aluminum box, but I'd have to move the tire rack back at least 6". I can mount it next to the back lip (cover) of the aluminum box but will still have to move the tire rack. In any event, where will I get the best air flow to help mileage? |

Looks awesome (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) I would bet it will help protect whatever you are looking to tow as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Paul, maybe someone else as well, said it would better mounted higher to get air flow over the car, so that is what I did. It's adjustable, so I just have to try different settings. |
