Re: Summertime hard top
I did my jeep top like that, I'd love to find a cheap one for my blazer. I loved it, it's like a safari top with no flapping and doesn't hold water.

Re: Summertime hard top
I have a top with no hatch sitting around that I might do that with, pretty cool. Wonder if it attaches to the roll bar for support?

Re: Summertime hard top
I left the b pillar on my jeep top for support and the door seals, I'd probably do the same on the blazer.

Re: Summertime hard top
Anyone ever thought about building a top using tubing and some sheet metal to cover it? Be cool to have the option of removing the sides like above but still be ridged being steel tubing.

Re: Summertime hard top
I bet some of the rock crawler guys have something like that, not sure how many are on this forum...maybe try ColoradoK5, they have some pretty cool rigs on that site.

Re: Summertime hard top
The only reason I thought about it is because tops seem to bring a premium these days in ca. I've been looking for a clean single wall and everytime I come across one its at a 1k+ proposition and still needs work.

Re: Summertime hard top
I have a singlewall. But I'm up here in Oregon. I would let it go for 500. I smoothed it out. Exterior is in good shape. Hatch has everything there and works well. Some crack repair done on the hatch. Keeps the water out and would great for a daily driver. I am going a different direction on my project.
