Well- I am on my 3rd top and have agreed to pay $1,500 for a 4th- unfortunately. And it will be my last. Factory Top- Big cracks in the corners of the window on one side. These were big and eventually weeped water when you pressed the sides. This was about 14 months into owning it. Second...

Not sure why there would be differences on the year models yet, but I know the 38x13.5 tire on the beadlock capable wheel is likely to rub on the upper control arms. I have seen this on two different Raptors and I put wheel spacers on mine for this reason.

Th ever-cracking MIC top is probably the top on my list.

That sucks- sorry to hear that. Hope it comes in soon- just the standard black? Champagne is on backorder and I wanted that with the Hot Pepper Red Bronco. Side note- nice EB in your Avatar pic. What year? I have '70 & '75.

They have them on their website. It looks fairly straightforward mechanically as most of it comes in one assembly. You have to disassemble the interior and cut the center console to put the wiring in. As seen in a few threads, there are some 'adjustments' that may be required for proper fit...

I have the Diabolical Slipstream as well and Im pretty sure it will not work with this softtop- I have been very interested in the eTop with all the hard top problems I have had. The motor and bracketry for the top comes down below where the Slipstream mounts. I really like the slipstream when...

Looks great!! I like the squared fenders on the Everglade. I wonder how they would look on a Raptor with the wider stance.

When I went with my son (14 at the time), I simply asked the guy at the counter for some free Swag for him and they gave him his own. Astutely, he said- well I can't bring this home without bringing something for my sister- they gave him another Raptor water bottle, keychain and some decals...

1- I expected to see cracks after reading alot on here. I didnt expect to see them on my third top under warranty.. Everything else- meh

2023 MIC top- currently on my third top (rear shell) and that has now cracked in less than months. Ford is now claiming there is no warranty on the replacement top. They have offered to pay for 2/3 of a new rear shell, but why would I want to throw more money at their problem?? This is a daily...

There are alot of owners who have no reason to look at their tops- they dont hand wash them, they don't take them off, etc. OEMs bank on that level of ignorance of the public. What frustrates me is that a Ford 'Customer Relations' rep told me there was no warranty on the replacement top...

I have also gone thru 3 factory tops. The first under 36k miles (less than 2 years old), the second about 8 months later and now the third 4 months after that and at 38k miles. Ford now says the top replaced 4 months ago didn't come with a warranty and wants to 'split' the cost. They have gone...

I would have waited another year and gotten a non MIC hartop. After cracking and warranty on the first two, Ford says they won't warranty a 4 month old top... I love my Bronco Raptor, but Ford is a terrible company- knowing these issues exist.

Yeah, that is the Mic top and only for the back shell. The windows, insulation and back hatch would all have to be moved from the old top. FYI- painting a color match or black shell isnt cheap either...

Ford has communicated to my dealer today that my 4 month old top does not carry a warranty. Not that I violated any of their policies, that they replaced the first under original 36k mile bumper to bumper, the next top was under replacement parts warranty and now this new Ford top has no...
