Trek top. So far so good.

 

Finally get to post in this thread. I just finished my 3" full traction lift, with fox shox and had the 35's on moto metals installed today.

 

Damn, kinda harsh eh?

 

I think he might be jealous...that is one sweet looking ride!!

 

just what i was thinkin. i think the tire/wheel combo looks sweet!!

 

man, thats the LAST thing i want to hear!! cant stand the cold. i've decided to try the soft top all winter and sell my hard top.

 

I would love those in 15's.. nice looking wheel..

 

I live in the Western NY snow belt. We get a LOT of lake effect snow and ice. I have had my Jeep since the fall of 2006 with original soft top only (never owned a hard top at all) and have never had any problems.

The only thing i have done occasionally in the winter is go out and push the snow off with a large broom if it is that heavy wet stuff. I just dont want to stretch the seams/stitching and potentially get a leak. I never touch the soft top windows with anything but a snow brush. The heat is more than adequate to melt any ice/snow off of them quickly.

I wouldnt mind having a hard top, but IMO they certainly aren't a necessity for the winters around here. If i lived further north where temperatures dropped well below zero for extended periods of time i might consider getting a hard top, but then again maybe not.

 

I've considered using the soft top exclusively, but it would require adding a host of security boxes given the stuff I carry (mostly camera gear). Plus, the hard-top is a bear to store.
