yea, I've watched all of those. Since he cut the chasis the proportions are off in my head. I'm really just trying to piece together what it would look like with a white "full size" gladiator lol

I really like the Ursa Minor JK top. I am sure they will come up with something great. I have been thinking how to work around the cab bed structure and came up with this. Lets say we make the top part of the roof one piece. However the lower structure between the bed and cab would be 2 pieces between bed and cab. Next we support the roof with 6 actuators that is supported from the bed structure but runs full truck length. This should give the strength needed to support roof and keep it separated from cab.

In particular the "pop-up" part of it. Similar...
and by similar I just mean that it pops up... lol your design is way better.

This would be nice but I still want to take to front top panels off. So prefer to see it cover only the rear of the cab.
