Don't Need My Single Walled Top

WIW?

Thing is my demographics are terrible for trying to sell something like this...

Thoughts?

Re: Don't Need My Single Walled Top

Just got a single wall, basically free. Traded some parts. Now I'm stuck with a dble wall, maybe we could make two for deal with someone. Your rite, it just seems like hardtops a worthless or close to it in our area...

Any way, wifey doesn't like to see two hardtops in the backyard, so I will probably be cutting it up

Re: Don't Need My Single Walled Top

The deal is, my current blazer build has double walled top mounting holes in the bedsides now.

The single walled tops are a completely different set up.
I have a pretty decent double walled top, so I figure I might as well use it.
Don't see putting side panels in this one.
Would save a lot of work retrofitting the single to my current bedsides.

If/when I do let the top go, it will be posted on the parts for sale portion of this board.

Re: Don't Need My Single Walled Top

Man, I am on the other side of the world!! Just drive out and bring the top and I'll sell you the 4X4, sound like a deal!? I am in the same boat just differnt direction, mine is set up for the single and has a double strapped to it (2wd, not the 4X). I can't seem to find a single out here??

If your cutting it up, at least try to make a 1/2 cab top out of it.

Silly question, but is the hatch long gone? I would like it if it's still good.

Re: Don't Need My Single Walled Top

Absolutely, just re-drill both your bedsides with the appropriate mounting holes.
