ItΓÇÖs been a long road, very happy you have it to a level you like it. I think it looks great.

I installed an on board air setup. It cost about 250 in total, so half the price of the ARB compressor I was considering.

I ordered it in July and I finally got it. It was worth the wait. Thank you BC Broncos.
The top goes together easy enough, but getting the snaps on is a son of a gun.

I really like the Look of those!

Its a great top - it gets easier to snap in the warmer weather. I had a person add pull tabs to the bottom 4 snaps on each side to help get those ones snapped. Also you will want to buy a button replacement kit because the snaps will break over time. The kits can be found on amazon or locally... (example of one)

I want to get rid of the snaps and find an alternative eventually...

Thanks for the info, I'll order some.

I also found - and it will depend on your top and the fit - that using a door panel clip removal tool is nice as it makes the snaps last longer and pops them right off. I happened to have one from other projects and found it useful :)

Good idea!

NASCAR Mike, does he still go by that nick?, had some different style canvas attachment snaps on his locally made 1/2 cab soft top, something like this. They seemed to work well in the cold and looked like theyΓÇÖd hold up a bit better over time.

Top looks great!!

Having had tonneau covers on all my trucks, I knew to avoid snaps and velcro. There was two options that would work here assuming that there is some sort of channel mounted to the bedsides? This cover had an extruded aluminum channel that mounted to the bed. Then the cover had an extruded plastic hook attached to the fabric. This was great as there were no snaps and no velcro.

Here is the basic concept for this tonneau. It would have to be rolled 90 with the channel facing down to work for a bronco top.

I dont think there would be anyway to make that work on the sides and back of the BC top. Once the sides and back are on they are comparable to a hardtop as there is almost no movement aka flapping that you get in normal soft tops because they fit well and taught. I would think it would be nearly impossible to get the side lip into a channel once you have the top in place. But I could be wrong!

What tightens the fabric? Perhaps I don't understand the install. If my assumptions are correct, this style of fastening wouldn't be any different than the snaps.

It is tight to begin with you pull it and snap it. Once the top is installed it has 2 turnbuckles on the rear bar that you can tighten when needed.

I snapped a front axle shaft this weekend. On a good note it was a stock shaft and I have been wanting an upgrade for years. I ordered the TBP "Trail Terminator" front axle shafts. The website advertises 60% stronger than stock. We shall see.

Oops I broke both sides at one time. lol

Um, that may mean that you need to ease up on the skinny pedal!

That's just so difficult.

LOL! It is at times, but I know my wallet dictates how much throttle is applied after a few sets of u-joints and shafts!
