Default Full Jeep cover to include cage

Hi gang,
I need to find an outdoor complete cover for my 2 door JK but I have the Kongo cage on it. I was thinking a Toyota FJ might be that size.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

If the fj isn't big enough then check into a custom made cover. The muscle car group uses them to accommodate hood scoops and all that. Basically you give them measurements and they make a cover based on those numbers.

I need a new cover too. My lightbar bracket gets in the way.

You may need to mod your cover, for instance.

1. Cut the windshield seem just enough so the cover slides down like norm.
2. Sewn across the split so that it doesn't rip anymore
3. Then sewn some Velcro strips 2", on to the cut seem so you can attach it over the light bar over to the other cut seem.

Just a thought I had since I'll have to do the same thing when I get my snorkel.
Good luck
Augi

Check out the raingear full jeep cover it runs really big " as in tall". I'd mail them and ask for measurements.

Good luck

I bought a full cover from Ebay for $60. Fleece lined, breathable, nice cover that's made to fit the 2 door, but loose enough to possibly allow a rack to fit under it.

I thought about cutting it but haven't really needed to use the cover that much. I think about 3 times since may. It rains on my days off or I get home just in time.

Anyone have issues with mold growth under a full cover?
