Anyone have a new softtop? I need some measurments please!!

I will be ditching my hardtop this spring in favor of a soft top. It is getting to be a real pain trying to find a place to store it every summer. I am getting ready to install a full family cage and would like to get a few measurments if i could.

I need measurments from the floor to the bottom of any braces for the soft top, Pictures of approximent locations of braces would be great too. Also about where the roof starts to slant back in the rear. I need to get a good general idea so I can build my cage next month and try my best not to shoot myself in the foot for a soft top.

There is only one new soft top available currently (softopper.com) and I'm sure they have accurate measurements readily available. If you're looking for a used top, I'd find the top first because there were several styles and brands over the years.

I am looking to buy new, I know a few others have bought the new ones as well. I will shoot an email out to soft topper and see what i get back. I would really like to get some measurments from a member as well just to confirm.
