Re: PO has me PO'd

Well, I uncrated it this morning...sweeeeet! Top was as you said it was. Nice to buy from a man of his word, gotta admit, I was nervous sending money, but after talking to you numerous times my gut said go for it

Nice packaging, very well done! No damage in transit. Thanks for marking those 2 bolts, would've never found them

Anyone doing business with Jurassic-1 in the future, rest assured, he will not do you wrong

It came with a bulkhead, but having a wood bed raised it up about an 1/2" compared to the steel floor, so I may be selling the original and making a modified version. My last job was working in a sheet metal shop...Oh the perks, don't ever burn your bridges when you leave a job

Plus my 2 1/2 year old grandson would not have access to his playground in the bed

I just drank beer last, but your mixture sounds like a lot more fun.

Strictly precribed by a doctor, didn't even consider trying to mix in my Mobic, for an arthretic hip...but, then again Micheal Jackson had 12 controlled substances in his toxicology report. Look where it got him!

Did the Dr. prescribe the whiskey as well? Yeah, it didn't work out for MJ very well.

Hope you're feeling better.

Re: PO has me PO'd

SNAFU...PO has me POed

Seems like my windshield was replaced at one time for some reason, rust,collison, who knows, but I do know it has come back to bite me in the arse! While mounting up the 1/2 top it was obvious it didn't want fit well at the top of the windshield. Taking a diagonal measurement from the top of the w/s frame to the top of the bed, passenger side is 1" longer. It looks like if I winch the passenger side down and back it would be a better fit...problem is fiberglass and glass do not take well to pressure and stress


Wonder how far I can move it without bad things happening, all the gaps look to be within factory specs.

Of course on another note, I have brand new repop window channel rubbers for a double wall top and this thing takes single wall top window channel rubber
