    What would you guesstimate is the most weight you've had on top and how has it held up over the last 3 years of off and on use? Thanks for making this content, much appreciated.

    Can this setup work with the Rhino Vortex cross bars which has more aerodynamic shape and possibly reduced noise?

    Thanks for the video. Quick question. I know you said you had 8.25 inches of clearance. Thule makes one with 8 inches. Do you think that would be enough?

    Will this setup allow you to support a roof tent like iKamper Skycamp 2.0 on the Sky One-Touch Power Top Rubicon?

      These are only rated for a few hundred pounds of static weight. I would not put the active load of people moving around on a few 1/4" bolts.

    I am thinking of getting a Jeep Wrangler Willys... I have a question if you don't mind me asking... is this roof top makes noise when you drive? comparing other 2 of soft and hard top... i am under impression that hard top would be the best for quietness comparing the soft top... is this top same as soft top in regards to the noise? thanks in advance...

    • @colinmcvetty
      @colinmcvetty  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The Sky Top is comparable to a soft top for sound. There is no insulation between the canvas top and the outside wind. It is louder than an insulated hard top

    • @cmmeme
      @cmmeme 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I had both hard and soft top prior to my sky touch. The twill fabric of the sky touch and hard sides make it much quieter than the full soft top, but not as quiet as the full hard top. I absolutely LOVE the sky touch and its its versatility to open and close at any second needed.

      @@mzh22003 Just wanted to chime in here if you are still in the market. I've owned all 3 tops. I had the dual top on a 2010 and now a 1 touch on a JL.
      Hard top you will never take off because it's a hassle to take off and put back on.
      The soft top sucks if its your daily driver as the wind noise is somewhat loud. Its gotten better since 2010 but still overall somewhat annoying. Also it still take time to take off and put on the top. However if you are a purist this is the ONLY option

      The setup is super strong but very noisy. I love the ability to load 16' boards on the jeep but the sound is annoying. I take the entire set-up on and off between trips. Not for daily driving.
