Default Bikini/Duster/Windjammer

Anyone running this combo on their JK?
I ran this on my YJ all summer...and it leaked a little but I didn't care because it was a P.O.S. I care a little more about my JK.
Love the look.
Opinions please and thanks!

Bestop has the wraparound jammer for the 2 dr which eliminates the leaks.

I have a modified combo I bought from a board member.

You running a 2 or 4 door?

Mine is a 4 door. I've run it in a light rain and it held up ok. I wouldn't want to run it in a downpour or leave it on during multiple days/weeks of heavy rain.

I usually keep an eye on the forecast and switch tops for rainy days.

I have a 2DR.
I want to just leave it on.
I was thinking of the wraparound, but I am 6'2" tall and my seat back extends beyond my roll-bar.....will I be able to use this?

I'm only 6' but I need to know the same thing. Also - how's the wind noise? Yes, I know it's a jeep, but I'd still like to hear my passengers talk.

I run this setup in the summer with the wrap around windjammer for a 2dr and LOVE it. Mine doesn't leak at all. I'm 5'10" and I got enough room. Your seat can stretch the windjammer back as well. The best part is how easy it is to remove the top or re-install when you hit a rain storm. Wind noise really isn't anything too much more than the factory soft top although if it's really windy at interstate speeds, the windjammer tends to flap a bit. Remember if you get the wrap around one, you have to purchase the soundbar cap too. This year I'm going to get the Bestop superdoors too for the summer time!

Thats how I'm rolling....the foors fit sooo easy in the back, and I modded my header so it folds in half so it goes in the back and I'm topless and doorless in less than 5 minutes... If it starts to rain I'm back up just as fast.

I'm 6' 4" and the seat goes back all the way and even leans back a bit. It is tight but it is fine.
