What's the purpose of the slant top?

[steffen707]

Other than looking SWEET, what's the point of these slanted tops?
Would the gladiator look this cool with a slanted topper?

There is no room between the back seat and the front of the bed for a slant back. A one pice top to the back of the bed in a slant back has potential.

I bought one to these for my JK 2 door. I only kept it for a week. My plan was to use it for an emergency top but realized without soft doos it would not do me any good.

I was able to sell it off for the price i paid - shipping so I basically rented it for shipping coast. The new owner has been using it for the past 5 years and loves it.

Looking sweet is the point

oooh, that would be an option. top/topper all in one.

I think a frameless top would work great on the Gladiator. It would be a nice option for people with hard tops.

I think the point is to look cool by having a roof and back with the same style as a Humvee.

Hmmm, don't think I like that.

I'm still thinking use an old hard top sitting on the tailgate, access bed through it's lifting window. mod some old tops to connect up near roll bar. I know it sounds ridiculous. But these are hard pieces already sized. Just cut and paste!

Slant tops are right up there with angry eyes.

So maybe it's a better idea to buy it from someone who knows a thing or two

i think if you want a fastback buy a mustang
jeeps lack interior space so why compromise it futher
