Dutchman Posted July 2, 2010 Author Posted July 2, 2010 yeah, i know, its a jeep- who needs a top, blah blah blah....... there is no ac so i need some shade. i figure after the festival. however, i will be giving hte jeep a bath tomorrow. I picked up the Foundations new to us trailer and its white, i mean clean snow white. the jeep isn't and it looks so pulling it. taint a large trailer, 4x6x5, but its enough to get us going. hey we don't need a lot of room, after all, it all needs to fit aboard Luna in the end

We own 6 jeeps. Not one top is the same. Regardless of the suppossed year, make or model. Through trial and error, we've found the best method is to leave the top in the sun for a day or two to let it stretch itself out. Work with the top in the late afternoon after it has been out all day. We use silicone spray to lube the zippers on the windows before cinching everything down. , Skull and Quill Society , The Watch Dog "We are 21st Century people who play a game of dress-up and who spend a lot of time pissing and moaning about the rules of the game and whether other people are playing fair."
callenish gunner Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 I've been thinking about their Sunrider top as an alternative to our hardtop for at least 6 months a year. J.C. Whitney has had about the best price on them that I've seen.
Pew Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 Try Quadratec, Four Wheel Parts Wholesalers, or Four Wheel Drive Hardware. All are jeep specialists companies. Also try 4x4 group buy (dot) com. It is a great site to ge reduced prices on jeep tops and equipment . . . , Skull and Quill Society , The Watch Dog "We are 21st Century people who play a game of dress-up and who spend a lot of time pissing and moaning about the rules of the game and whether other people are playing fair."
