    Great video!! We just purchased a 93 YJ with hard top installed. The Bestop soft top came with the sale as well.Your video helped us figure out how to install the soft top as we had no instructions from the seller. Thank you for taking the time.

    Really nice YJ! I took my top off and needed a reminder on a few points to put it back on. Your video helped a lot. Well done. And yes, pushing that tightening bar up while lining up the bracket mounting holes can be daunting. Your new top looks great.

    Great informative video. I too am interested where to go to get the low profile (stainless steal?) bolts you used to attach the tub rails?

    Thank you for the great video! Just bought a used frame wasn’t sure what went where or even if it was a bestop frame. Video helped a lot.

    do you think the top could fit around a custom cage? seems like the top and the poles are higher than the roof line

      No. It’ll be too tight

    You skipped the part i am struggling with haha.
    I have my top clipped at the windshield and buttoned to the back cross bar and i have the windows and 1 corner in but the other side is so far off i was hoping i had messed up some part of the process.
    Back to the drawing board for me i guess.

    I can’t believe the condition of this Jeep my 93 has a 350 Chevy a 5sp and 35’s and I will have to replace sheet metal because of the rust

    I noticed you have a rail bolted to the top on your tailgate. Is that just for looks to continue the rail line around the back? did your purchase that or use something else to make it?? I ask because I want to do the same to mine.

    This is so helpful! You just saved so me much time. I just bought an 87. I’m overseas and trying to find parts when I get State side so it’s hard not physically being there to look at it. Anyway, I’ve been looking for that windshield part for a week or so, just wanted to say you are correct there isn’t much out there on this top but this video was helpful.

    Now that you've had it for a couple of years, what is your overall assessment of it? Is it loud on the highway? Does it leak around the doors? I am considering the switch from an OEM YJ top to this one. Any info that you can provide would be much appreciated.

  • @matthewweert1917

    @williamburch1321 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hey man. Thanks for the detailed video. I’ve had a rampage soft top for about as long as you’ve had the bestop. I’m not supper pleased with how it’s wearing and just the overall quality of it. I wouldn’t be upgrading any time soon but how is your top holding up? Is it still comparable to new in quality? Thanks 🤙

  • @galehess6676

    Best Top's 2017 Pavement Ends model, for YJ, with clear rear window seems to be pretty good quality, slightly better than the the older version from '01.
    As a replacement, it went on super easy, I would guess it took 45-1hour with half doors and side windows and rear. Just center it and the rest flows (bend the arms to take it off and leave them that way until you are have the corners clipped in on the rear/bottoms).
    Got mine for $335 with free ship, from ebay or amazon. They have a coating to stop UV degradation, or slow it. Zippers are very slick, easy to start. Went on super easy in 75 degree, cloudy weather, sunny day could be a touch better, but no complaints at all. '90 YJ, stock.

    • @Archifx
      @Archifx  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks. Wheel is made by Grant. It was on the jeep when I got it. The previous owner picked it up in the late 90’s

    • @Archifx
      @Archifx  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      They open and close and keep the wind off of you at cruising speeds.

    • @johnridenour2220
      @johnridenour2220 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Did they come stock ? I'm looking for a set of full doors ,but what I've read is that the windshield may need to be adjusted to make them fit. I have a 93 with some half doors.

    • @Archifx
      @Archifx  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, they’re off of an old CJ I believe. I think I had to adjust the windshield a little bit it’s just a couple bolts.

    • @Archifx
      @Archifx  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I might talk about them in this video. Check to see. Maybe I do... I seriously can’t remember. th-cam.com/video/P6rANS7te-k/w-d-xo.html
