Default ain't whistling dixie but...

dang sure whistling. i have finally got my 31 pick up on the road. i used one of the aluminum windshield frames new gaskets etc. when assembling the cab. as soon as you get moving down the road there is a very annoying whistle that sounds like it is coming from near then top of the ws. moving my hand around the edge doesn't seem to change the sound at all. could air be working through the ws top hinge? any ideas as to what could be causing such an annoying noise?

Try putting some tape on the out side spots you think it is coming from. If it stops you found it.

I have a constant distant hiss in my hearing... VA gave me a wonderful pair of hearing aids. Now the outside noise is louder than the inside noise. Didn't impact those "inside voices" at all. Now that's progress! Chap
