There are several different things that you could actually have here. The
two most likely are Bestop Supertop and Bestop Replace-a-Top on factory
hardware, if you actually have a Bestop soft top cover. The answers are
different for each one. Are the top rear corners of the doors angled, or
are they rounded with about a four inch radius?

Re: 91 YJ JEEP SOFT TOP Help!!!!
Brian,
Here is a link to a page http://www.xtremeterrain.com/oemframes.htm that
shows the frames of the OEM soft tops which is the same as the Bestop
Replace-A-Top frames. If your frame looks like this then you have the
Replace-A-Top soft top from Bestop and you can use the hardware from a
factory soft top. If your frame doesn;t look like this then you more than
likely have a Bestop SuperTop and I do not belive that they sell the
hardware seperate. You'll need to find it on the used market or buy a whloe
new soft top with hardware.
If you need to get your hands on hardware for the factory/Replace-A-Top,
there are places on the web that sell the hardware only for the soft tops
now.
