I buy and sell Jeeps and parts to fund my builds. I have a set of Bestop 2 piece soft doors, but didn't have a top they would fit. http://www.4wd.com/Doors-Door-Accessories/Supertop-Two-Piece-Doors-for-Factory-Tops-Supertops-and-Sunrider-Tops-in-Black-Vinyl.aspx?t_c=87&t_s=503&t_pt=3955&t_pn=bst51783-01&gp=1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=froogle&utm_campaign=product&emlprox=out&ppcfon=1,1&gclid=CPunx7XB4LUCFQvpnAodJSkAaQ I just bought a Pavement Ends Flip Top complete with hardware for a TJ. http://www.4wd.com/Jeep-Tops-Jeep-Top-Accessories/Flip-Top-without-Upper-Doors.aspx?t_c=75&t_s=459&t_pt=3382&t_pn=PAV44527-15
I want to use both of these to have the soft doors and a Flip-top. Doors should work with the top, but the problem will be to mate the TJ top to the YJ windhield frame. I have found articles about adapting a TJ top to a YJ, but they all seem to use a factory TJ top and end up replacing the sport cage for a TJ cage. This top is a very simple top, very YJ-like except for the windshield area. Has anyone done a TJ top swap and have some insight into this? Any build pics would help a great deal also. Or any links to something like this?
I know I could buy a Flip Top for a YJ, but that cost $500 more than I paid for this one. I have downloaded the instructions for both and if the weather warms up some today I will go out and do some fitting up. I will try to take pics and do a write up on this mod if I feel I can do it without messing something up.
