IMO, they only have one real advantage going for them.


Need is out of the fact that my 2wd Blazer is a single walled blazer with the capture nuts and all, but the top sitting on it is a double, so I "need" a single to work as it was inteded to on my 2wd, I could have bought several double walls (literally 10 or more!) and no singles or not close enough, etc??

I always heard that a single wall was lighter, but I can move my double wall around with just me and a helper, while it is a struggle for me and two friends to move the single wall around???

Makes perfect sense, I didn't realize you had a 72 2wd.

Take a va-ca to the great north east, bring the tail gate with ya since your comin' up anyway and I'll 'give' you my extra single walled top.

Re: Found SW Top on Ebay

I want it so bad, I'd pay for the hassle of having someone bring it back! I may drive back to OH this summer as my dad lives up there, but that may not even be close enough???
