Best Rain Cover (2025 edition)?

[dougcjohn]

Correct, cover for no top and doors… works with or without doors, but top needs to be 100% off.
Standard and BRaptor versions.

The pic of half cover is for when Rear top On, and middle & Ft panels Off.

They’ve added a Light bar option to several versions.

I ordered from Coversandall.com because they have the Bronco measurements but you can adjust to your build. I'm on portals with 38's. 3" poke on each side. So I knew a "Stock Bronco" cover wouldn't work. They confirm all figures prior to fabrication. This fits like a glove.

This actually looks like the smartest move here... It' not a trail cover, so probably takes a few more minutes to fully install, and will be impossible to keep clean if deployed quickly on the trail for a down pour since it hangs low, But the Custom Fit/Photo Config means it's gonna work no matter how you have your Bronco setup, and you don't have to be concerned with Top/Doors on or off.

The DuroPro Plus version looks like better quality than the Rain Gear, but probably not as nice as the Broncover, and seeems to be priced to fall right between the two as well.

Looks like a good full car cover!
The Broncover isn’t intended to replace a full body cover.

It’s is a thin light weight cover that rolls into a small package to stow, and quickly deploys to provide weather protection for topless modes.

My needs are a quick install top protection when day ends and I don’t want to install top for evening. Also Bronco may be dirty, I wouldn’t want to install a full body cover and pull dirt around on paint and impregnate dirt into the covers lining.

Several different methods… depending on what fits best for your situation.

Oh I totally get what you're saying, I run cab covers on all my jeeps and have for years (TJs and JKs) Usually the Bestop ones, as they are well made and surprisingly well priced.

I had a Raingear on my JKU for a while, and honestly was unimpressed with it, not very watertight, and too lightweight.

The Broncover on the other hand, seems inflexible in configuration, and expensive. I'm running a Havoc soft top this year, and my usual configuration is windows out, and soft top in 'Safari' top mode... From the Broncover description, it won't fit that configuration.

The coversandall will fit any configuration I might be in, and my main use would be as an emergency cover for down pours, so not going to put it on daily. It's not a Cab Cover, But seems like the best thing to meet the emergency cover need so far.

That said, I haven't got anything for the Bronco yet, still trying to make up my mind.

You might check the Broncover site… they have a version for soft top when only top section is on. I didn’t look at it that close since I lack a softy. So it may not be what you’re describing.

Yeah, the combo shield pack would be perfect, but they don't make it for a 2 door.. when I had the 4 door, the windows were easy to carry and put in, so I didn't mind doing that.

I don't blame Broncover for that, the 2 door market is much smaller, maybe they'll come out with something like that for the 2 door later

Ummmm?
You might email or call them... I think I recall reading somewhere they did / were in process of adding 2 Door versions of some of their tops. They're website may not be up to date.

A big ask since tere will be contact with dirty body. Can just make own up....

For a quickie low cost solution, I use a $20 tarp and some bungee cords with my hiking stick to prop the center when I have the front panels off.

Agree… keep it off the dirty body. Just cover the open top.

That definitely works and at the best cost factor. Maybe a little more water into cabin but it’s stopping the majority
