Suntop Soft Top

[jhale1800]

Ok, the install was a b*tch... Still not sure that everything is correct, but the results look pretty good... I may have also gotten a few additional upgrades...

Sorry it's taken me a while to upload some photos. The weather hasn't cooperated, and I wanted to make sure I could include some with the top rolled up. Speaking of that, after rolling it up, the front along the windshield isn't as tight around the seal like Suntop specified in the instructions. Anybody else having the same issue? Maybe I tightened the buckles too much...

I had that same issue with the lip not sitting good after first roll up, I unbolted the front piece and redid the Velcro for the top to bar with it pulled down more and that fixed it

Looks really good! I have a silver rig with tan leather seats (I hate the red dash on the rubi) and wondered about a tan top. Probably wouldn't look as good as yours does, but I dig it just the same.

Honestly, I questioned the choice to go through the effort of paint matching the hardware but it was a good choice for your rig! Nice vision!

Like Wkyfiregladdy said, just adjust the velcro. Mine still pulled up a bit in the center but never leaked so I left it alone.

That looks nice. White/tan is a good combo also. Really curious on your thoughts of how much time/work it is to either roll up the top and put it back, and same for the back window piece.

You will get lots of wind noise if you leave it up like that.

Rolling it up wasn't too bad. I actually rolled the back window with the rest of the top. No more than 5 minutes, and I could probably go faster with more practice.

Putting the top back on was a little trickier. I think it still needs to stretch out some more. Also, the velcro kept catching the rear window before I had it centered. I think I can make some adjustments to make it faster, but it took about 15-20 minutes getting it back on my first time closing it up.

Gotcha, thanks. Gonna keep one of these on the radar after the truck arrives

Wondering if anyone that has this could post pictures showing exactly how the front of the top bolts at the windshield? Looks like a great top but I would probably want to remove the whole thing most of the time rather than have it folded at the front, from reading posts on here sounds like it's just 2 bolts but wondering how quick that process is.

I've removed it several times. It's just 2 bolts. It's pretty easy, just remember to have the clips on top, and not tucked under when mounting it. I've made that mistake a couple of times.

Just got mine installed. Anyone else feel the gap on the C pillar where the window and top meets is a little large? Tried everything I could to stretch window up and still can not fill the gap in but so well.

Yes, but it hasn't been an issue. I've run it through a car wash and didn't have any water intrusion.

Thanks. Yeah feel they could have done a little better job with a little extra fabric at that spot. I assume a storm would have some blown rain get in but guess its how much really and most will go down the door channel.

Thinking of getting a tan one on a white gladiator, but also getting a tan softtoper bed cover. Any idea of the colors would be close?

The Suntop is definelty a shade darker and the textures are different but there is really not but so much material showing on the Suntop that it really stands out.
