Soft top Questions

[BroncoPilot]

Alright, after seeing and hearing how hard it is and how time consuming it is to take the top off, I was wondering how much better the soft tops were. How much easier are they and how much better are they? Are they worth it? Here in the weather state, the weather can change from hour to hour. One minute it will be nice and sunny and then it will pour. Now after hearing how long it takes to take the top off, I am thinking about buying a soft top. I assume you can take it with you on the road right? Thank you to all who answer!

The tops are better than the heavy, awkward hard top. There are good on the road, but put the hard top back on before winter. The tops are good, but rear seating is hard, not enough head room.

they are great id buy if i had the money to waste, but dont put a stero system in it they dont protect aginst theft very good lol

 

[firelt90bronco]

Yeah, thats the only drawback.

 

[BroncoPilot]

Well, I live in a fairly good neighborhood so theft isn't a big concern. But I did recently find a top on a bronco that looked like something from a Suzuki and it looked horrid.

 

[firelt90bronco]

OH, those soft tops with the frame that looked like the hardtop.

 

[BroncoPilot]

Yeah, they look exactly like a Geo Tracker.

 

[beefy85]

yea those are stupid lookin id go with the fastback its not too back seat friendly but they can sit back there...kinda

 

[firelt90bronco]

Or the pickup conversion stylr that looks like a tonneau cover.

 

[beefy85]

yea those too

 

[BroncoPilot]

Yeah, if anything, I'd get the fastback.

 

[firelt90bronco]

Do it and take some pics, it'll look cool.

I just installed a truck conversion style soft top from STC on my 92 and i love it it only takes a few seconds to pop off and flip up the rear seat. the only thing i didnt like was how time consuming it was to install even though i used air tool but it was well worth the effort ill have to take some pics and post em

Wow Johnski, yours is alot different then the one I saw. The one I saw was basically ageo tracker top. It bulged out on all sides and looked horrible, but yours looks good.

You can also get it without the snaps. Drawback is that the sides dont roll up, you have to leave the windows closed or zip them completely out. You can also fold the whole thing down like a convertable.

 

[BroncoPilot]

Yeah, I still have yet to see the one I saw in the magazine. The one in the ad had a top that was bulging out and all rounded.

Where can I find these online? I actually like all 3 styles I have seen but would like to find my cheapest option for now.
