I use my Bestop trail cover with the soft top folded down and the Rugged Ridge mirror relocation kit on both sides. There have been no fit problems. I have the Warn rock sliders, so I have to attatch the straps to the bottom of the rock rails which works fine.

I picked up the Rampage cab cover for just $39.99 at Quadratech if you're looking for a cheapie solution.



It fits fine with the top down (above) and even better with the top up. It seems to be tailored, actually, for top-up fitment.
It's very lightweight and easy to throw on.

My only complaint is that after only a handful of uses one of the elastic extenders started to separate from the web strap it was attached to -- required me to re-sew, but seems to be holding now.

I purchased the rampage as well.... works great at keeping the dew out overnight. Last night, with a storm moving it, I decided to really put it to the test. When I came back home about 30 minutes after it started seriously pouring, things looked good, AT FIRST.

Then I noticed that a huge pool of water (about 4 inches deep) had formed on the top above the front-- between the speakerbar and the windshield. "Well, that's ok" I thought, because at least that water isn't in the cab.

WRONG... I pulled up the side of the cover to peak, and water was in fact seeping through the fabric. I knew when I bought it, but felt compelled to put this to the test, that WATER RESISTANT doesn't mean WATER PROOF.

At least now I know!

I'm very happy with my Trail Cover. I also have the Rugged Ridge Mirror Relocation Brackets. No problem

Yup. It's only 2600 lbs dry. It pulls really well. I need to stay out of the mountains until I get my gears, but it pulls really nice.
