Gained 2 mpg

[Kilroy]

By taking off the lift jacks and installing the airfoil pictured, I gained between 1.5 to 2 mpg. This is above the 11 to 12 mpg I was getting. mileage measured with a Scangage II

Very simple and efective

That's my kind of solutions, simple and effective. An example of applied KISS system.

Thanx for sharing it.

Good work. I don't doubt your results. It's amazing what a little aerodynamics and weight reduction will do to mpg.

Yep, it helps. This is my setup. I get around 16-18mpg depends where I'm going.

How does that Thule system attach ? I dont want to drill holes in my truck

It's bolt on. You can see in the pic where the clamp is, it's just above the front door. There is a bracket attach to the load bar and the faring attach to that bracket. The bottom of the bracket has foam pad and is resting on top of the roof. I put some clear rubber foot on the roof to prevent the foam pad from rubbing the paint.
