Default Jeetops / Beware

My experience with them, thought I would pass it on. Purchased jeetops, they leak like a waterfall ! Company blames it on sealant that holds there top to factory top. Is this not tested first ? Here is pictures of our flooded jeep and jeetops won't stand behind it. please beware, seems it is being run out of a garage. Chris the owner will tell you to sue him and hang up. We are !

This is why I love the internet. I joined this forum to research headers and these tops. I saw them on Quadratech, but couldn't find any reviews.
i have leather too. maybe it's not woth the risk. Anyone else have any insght on these? Maybe insulated tops are the way to go.

even just sitting in it on the showroom floor.. Wow!

I spoke to the JeeTops manufacturer and also Quadratec before purchasing them... Both sources were great!! There is a 5yr/50,000 mile warrantee... and I know the guys at Quadratec don't fool around and wouldn't get involved with a crappy product....

I've been driving around (about 6 months) with the front JeeTops in my 2010 Rubicon and loving every minute of it! No more driving "in a cave" with the hard top on for me!..... : )
Really?

Cool story Bro!

Sorry you have problems but thanks for the warning!

With them being that expensive I figured you could go at least 100 feet below pariscope depth with them.

Thanks for the headsup. Good luck.
