New Soft top

[Evil_Glen]

This is my new Soft top from Soft-tops.com , It was easy enough to install took a few hours and 7 1/8 " drill bits.

Snaps on tailgate-

Turn-buckles for the rest-

Looks mighty fine. Does it balloon out on the highway?

 

[Evil_Glen]

No, not that bad. It is fairly tight on the truck. The only thing i have noticed is that it flaps allot with the windows up.

Top looks good! Just wondering what kind of tires you got on her? Those look like some serious meats!

Nice man, I like it. I want the safari style ones cause the wife and kids like to ride with me when "Justice" hits the trails. Those fast back ones really have a unique look.

After installing the soft top, are you able to revert to the regular top? It looks like if there was wing nut tabs on the sides.

Would it fit on a `78?

no, you have to remove the wing nuts inorder to re-apply the hard top. i wasnt to happy about that but ill get over it.

im not sure, when you go to www.soft-tops.com they ask you to specify the year of your bronco.

Removing the wing nuts, does that mean unscrewing or tearing apart?

 

[Evil_Glen]

Unscrew them, and to reapply it shouldent take long because i have the holes already drilled and measured. although the screws they give you are very weak. so i might need to replace them next summer.

I was sitting in my Bronco today trying to catch a few ZZZZZZs before going into work. I was looking up into the seat belts and was thinking, how do the rear passangers fasten their seatbelts if the top portion of the seat belts are unbolted from the top?

Two options:

1) Get a set of lapbelts and install them for the two outside seats.

2) Get a back seat out of an older model Bronco. (They had all three rear lapbelts mounted directly to the seat)

Of course, why didnt I think of that, I had that setup before in my 81 Bronco. I was probably to busy trying to get some shut eye. Thanks RoadKill

 

[Evil_Glen]

Mine have lap belts and i think they all should have had them
