Just installed my soft top yesterday. Finally. Bought last june/july. More difficult than I expected but it'll be a breeze in the future.
The mountains2metal product saved me $600+. That price is a scam. They are plastic with metal at the hit point. sure to wear out or break. the M2M...
That was awesome! It's what I was originally looking for. I organized it so I could more easily compare with my list (and because I'm a nut). I am missing the bolts for the 'Reciever' brackets at tailgate (these are the ones with new part #).
Cheers!
I'm hoping what is listed as 'panel trims' are the covers for where the soft top bolts on in the cargo area. I also got those side panels that the windows slide into with the soft top.
At this point I just want to get the damn thing on the truck! Still have a few months to enjoy it.
Here's my quote. Only thing missing (hopefully) are the rear latch brackets due to the part # change. I will forward that info to parts guy. thanks!

the real OEM softtop looks like 6 bolts to remove. I'd like to be able to run the soft top from april to...
Curious why you want a hardtop so badly when I'm looking for a soft top. My guess is you bought inventory so didn't have a choice. i just looked at badlands builder and it comes with 'cloth' top standard. hardtop is a $700 option. Dual tops is $2500 option. Twill soft top is a $2500 option...
Interesting offer. I've been keeping an eye out to buy an OEM twill soft top. But I'd like to have the hard top for new england winter though. 4 hrs apart is a bit far to get together and discuss.
