Can someone with a 1/2 top help!!!!!!!!!!
 
I got my 1/2 top today from a great fellow board member and I need some pics. How does yours attach at the windshield? Pics? How does yours attach at the bedrails? Pics? What does yours have for door window rubber? Pics? How is yours finished on the inside? Pics? I will take any and all pics. Thanks in advance.

Looks like mine. It's a Pacesetter brand. I have not fabricated an attachment yet. Some little brackets will need to be made. I also am missing the bulkhead but have a truck bedfront to modify.

Does yours look like mine where the corners sit on the bed rails?

Yeah but mine is in better shape.

Hmmm, I have the Glastite and it looks completely different. It mounts at the front window using the stock bolts and then it bolts to the top of the bulk head. I'll see if I can find some pics.

My half cab is also a Glasstite and the front bolts in place just like the factory top 2 bolts thru the visor mounts and 2 in towards the rear view mirror.

It uses the factory weatherstrip for a Blazer/Jimmy and has a sliding rear glass and a steel bulkhead that bolts to the truck bed.

I've attached some pics, hope they help.

Yep yours is a lot different. I cut me some aluminum today and ran it thru the english wheel to go in the top of mine for a little more support. I am going to put a piece in towards the front and make some brackets where I can use the factory holes in the windshield frame. I am not going to run a bulkhead on mine so I will have to drill holes in the top of the bedrail for mine to attach at the rear. I have a slim fit bedcover for a 88-98 chevy truck that I am going to try and cut up and make it fit. The blazer is several inches wider than the 88 up but I can add in some mat and glass it all together and save myself $800 since I already have the cover. Thanks for the pics.

Looks like Rustyparts beat me on the pics, but here they are anyway. Everything he said holds true for mine...

Sorry it took so long on the pics, Rg

Those brackets are to keep it simple to remove on the fly. I will be keeping mine as there is no since in having to whip out the wrench everytime. Just flip them with your thumb and go.
