Bestop Bikini Top
Hey guys,
just wondering....<scarey eh!>....I picked up the Bikini top from Bestop and picked up the screw on windshield adapter too. My question is....can I screw this jig on and still be able to put on the hard top and the full soft top. I did email Bestop about it but they said I couldn't....but sizing up, ROUGHLY, where the plate goes...it looks like it COULD fit. I did a rough size up with the full soft top on and I swear it could fit. Not sure though, since bestop said otherwise, but I'm not sure I described the plate I had....who knows. :p thanks |

I have '91 and I cannot do this.

Re: Bestop Bikini Top
It'll definitely fit with the soft top. Whether it fits with the hardtop
depends on the year TJ. Mine doesn't fit with the hardtop on though it could if I'd take the time to grind it a bit to give more clearance for the hardtop's bigger front clamps. I think it fits ok with both on later model TJs. My TJ is a '97.

Re: Bestop Bikini Top
ya, forgot to mention I've got an '02 TJ.
It certainly looks like it'll fit with the soft top....will be putting the hard top back on in a couple weeks....so I'll be able to check it then. But in the end I think it sits til next summer. Actually, I've had the top/doors off more in the last 3weeks than I did all summer....couldn't keep it off long enough during the summer cuz of all the rain that kept poppin up. Sure it's cooler now....but bearable! sb "Jerry Bransford" <jerrypb@cox.net> wrote in message news:oTt3d.104270$yh.29929@fed1read05... > It'll definitely fit with the soft top.
