Just ordered a Rampage bowless top and a Bestop Instatrunk.

Plan to swap the MT/Rs on to the stock wheels this weekend.

did you get the sailcloth? looking at some reviews I think you'll be happy with the rampage kit.

 

[LBarr2002]

Yes, It's sailcloth. Mason said he was happy with his, and it's $250 less than a replace-a-top, so I went for it.

when you have it apart for tires you could swap on your old XJ/zj 6cyl coils unless they are sagged to hell they are actually 146lb/in vs your stock LJ coils which are 134lb/in another option would be v8ZJ coils which are 158lb/in which would give you about 2" of lift to level it out.

What about the Rubi front coils only?

from looking around online looks like the LJ fronts are 130 lb/in just like rubicons

I saw those Jim, and thanks for letting me know, but too much money for now. I'll rock the BB for a while.

This is the only one I took. I hope to get the top stretched the rest of the way tomorrow and move it out of the garage.

 

[LBarr2002]

Left it in the sun for a while today and got the top on.

 

[LBarr2002]

After 3 days I finally got the sides stretched enough to get the back window zipped all the way. I'm going to return the Instatrunk. It wasn't what I expected so I ordered a 30 x 14 x 16 underbody truck box instead. It will work like the Instatrunk (accessed from the tailgate), but is bigger and sealed.

And my storage box came in today. Hope to get the bumper on and steps off by this weekend.

That's the plan. It will have real sliders soon.

 

[irmoxj]

Did you decide on what brand sliders your gonna go with?

 

[LBarr2002]

Probably getting the teraflex ones from Chad.
