It may look a little long. Thats another reason the height need to be stretched a little to give it nice proportions add the rack and I think the proportions look pretty good. Jeep had the design on the scrambler world cab. Smitty has a similar top as well

I'm sorry if this has been covered but will a Three Piece Top come without the beer window? I'm not a fan of beer windows as stated before. any info on this?

Why do you not like them?

Steffen707,I’m an old cop. About 90 to 95 % of all break ins to a truck were thru the vent window or beer window. They are the easiest to pry open. Maybe they are tougher made now a days. If I have to get the hard top with a beer window. Impo is not good for them.

Isn't the one on the JT small though? like no normal sized man could fit through it?

Or are you still worried about somebody prying the beer window open, and just reaching through and stealing something off the backseat?

There are many truck cap manufacturers that will build a bed cap. Then most usually do a rack on top of the cab and a rack on top of the cap that perfectly line up to look like one big rack yet allows flex. I personally like Rhino Rack. Then a front window slider or full fold down window are options in most truck caps. Options are endless.

But to do one piece top obviously the Gladiator is unique and most of us truck guys never had that option. The flex is really the only issue
