Thank you! Itās really a fun and satisfying project, and you donāt need much expertise to accomplish it. So far itās been very functional as extra security. People who see it in person think I purchased it.
And thatās too bad about the comments on Facebook. I got this vehicle to ājunk it upā. I...
It gets the job done and pretty secure. You can thread the original top bolts in place to ensure the doors donāt jump off the thing. I just wish I had a better spot in my garage - the doors side by side are long. Also they donāt quite sit flush against the wall. Iāve considered adding a piece of...
Thanks! Glad I could inspire. By the way, youāve got one of my favorite builds Iāve seen on this forum. I donāt off-road enough, but love those Swampers and Hutchinson wheels youāve got.
Are you saying that you want to keep the seats up and make a cover for the cargo space behind them? You could use a bike lock that wraps around the roll bar and through the head rest.
Gonna be honest, I improvised a lot, so I canāt really share a helpful step by step.
Itās made out of plywood, wood filler, spray paint, weather stripping, a jigsaw, and lots of sandpaper.
The cover attaches to the bronco using the same mounting points as the hard top, but I had to buy longer...
Depends on what your ultimate purpose is. My front panels donāt sit flush in the middle without the crossbar; and Itās going to integrate with my cab āwindowā and tonneau cover. Otherwise, youāre right, itās secure without.
I could see that working well considering those rubber bumpers will help hold it in place. I donāt have a short piece on hand, so please report back if you try it out!
Hey no offense taken. I get your point, but when I said secure, I really meant āmore secureā. I ran front panels without the back for months and didnāt like that I could physically see a gap between the two unlatched corners. I could see it from across the parking lot. It looked crooked. Problem...
But can yāall do pull-ups from your back seat? š
Sounds like the panels do just fine without the crossbar šš¼ Great looking broncos by the way.
Itās secure but not solid. Theyāll flex if you push up on the panels. In short term theyād be fine, but you may start to see some cracks in the panels over time. My ultimate plan is to build a tonneau cover and add a soft āwindowā to separate the cab from the back seat, so the crossbar will also...
