    The perfect soft top would be if Bestop would do a normal square back version of their Trektop Pro, as opposed to the slantback they have. THAT would be perfection. Soft top weight and versatility with the added benefit of a solid back window that opens like a hardtop rear window.

    So I’m new to the jeep world, picked up my preloved 2011 ruby from my brother in Colorado last weekend and your channel was the first I got into and I love it. As a fellow Virginian I’m all about this top. I am a sold sub now, love the content (even though this is from a year ago)

    I agree with you. The top has an overland feel to it. Paired with a Jeep that has rock crawling mods, its a perfect mixture.
    Great job, and great video as always.

    Always wanted a hard top. Instead I got a JL with a soft top, based entirely on availability...then realized the soft top is where it’s at! Love the freedom because FL weather is too unpredictable. I hope Cassie enjoyed it...I stick my hands out the air-roof ALL. THE. TIME. 🤩

    I love the hard top for winter in Virginia. I swap to the soft top in late spring. I have a love/hate relationship with the rain in VA. I love all of the green in VA because of the rain. Draw back is that I do not get to run with the top down as much as I would like to in the summer.

    I bought this top at 4wheel Parts Truckfest. The vendor rep cut me a deal on top of the discounted price. I love the top. The only issues I have are that the windows do not work with the besttop window bag that I had bought to store the windows in for my original softtop, and the front wants to sit on top of the front seal so you have to pull it back. Mine ripped the front seal but still no leaks yet.

    I know y’all fast forwarded it but dam y’all made it seem super easy.
    This is the first time noticing the PSC crusher corners. Was it pretty simple?
    Have you thought about adding a snorkel? If you have already since this 5-6 months ago just ignore the question.
    Trektop has the bikini look, but I like the safari top look also.

    I have a Bestop NX Plus and I love it. Do miss being able to access the trunk as easy like the hard top. This was a good choice for you. Only thing I majorly don't like about the JL top is that stupid "safari" top over the trunk. Looks weird and reminds me of outdoor furniture, like the awning that covers a glider lol Unfortunately, Bestop followed suit. At least there's other functions of the top

Everything else about the top like the ease of topping it back is awesome...... Little bulky for me to. But it looks great on your Jeep!

    It’s like a clone of the premium soft top for the JLUR.. I have one of the first 2018 JLU Rubicon’s that hit the streets. I built it on the computer in early January 2018 and received on February 28 2018. I also have a 2 door manual JK. The Rubicon is the eight speed automatic so the whole family can drive it.(even though I was pissed because I wanted the manual). I have owned a CJ-7 and 4 Wranglers and always got just the soft top. I hate the hardtop - it’s expensive, it’s a pain in the ass to take it off and store it, and it’s not really more quite than a good soft top. I also think a Jeep looks much better with a soft top!!!!😀. That’s just me🤪. And to answer Krashnpa’s and Matt Bededum comments it doesn’t flap around at all in any position you put it in and looks awesome and is as quite as the stupid hardtop.

      Good question! You would need to remove the 6 bolts holding the door channels, and remove the latch mechanisms on the rear. Probably about 15-20 min of work. The hard part of install is putting the top together, but once that’s done it never needs to be taken apart.

    You waited a lot longer to pop the top on a cold one than I would have. Then again, the "4 hour" project probably would have taken me 6 or 7...🤷‍♂️🍻

    looks like there is some water leakage on the header - did it leak anywhere else? I had a factory style I just sold because it leaked badly - wanting a softop that leaks as little as possible

      It was just because we didn’t seat it correctly. Zero leaks since then
