JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Default Bestop Trektop Is On (Finally)

Wow, if you buy one of these in the winter, I hope you live in Southern Florida. Not that it doesn't seal up well, but they shrink like crazy in the cold. Probably didn't help that mine sat outside in the 20 degree weather all day, or that my garage is maybe 50 degrees, but this thing was a b!tch. I expect it to be much better when it warms up.

Sorry, the pictures are terrible, it is cold and dark outside. I also did not have a top for a while, and therefore could not wash it. I'll try and clean it up tomorrow, if i make it home before sundown. Anyway, here is what you get for now.



















More to come!

It is latched coompletely down. The height of the rear of the roll bar is lower than the front windshield. This is the reason for the slope.

It is the model designed for the rear bar. Howecer, the rear bar is not a standard option, it needs to be purchased, according to Bestop Customer Service. They said the way to tell the new top is by the tension strap that runs across the front seat section.

???? Door to the house or Jeep. The door to the house is impossible to open, the frame to my loft covers it. As for the Jeep, I hope no one wants a 37" MTR, because if you didn't mind lugging a 150lbs wheel and tire around, it's free game.
