Seriously Great!

Maybe its just me but my eyes keep getting drawn to the gap between the rear rail and the downward slope of the roll bar. Could it be a bit shorter and stop before the slope. Not trying to be nitpicky but I feel now's the time.

Opens up a ton of options with this setup.

I second the comment. If possible trim a little shorter to to flow with the downward slope of rear roll bar. Excellent looking product.

Can you trim off the back material something like this. Should not compromise the strength since the cross members would keep it all together. Visually from a side shot eliminates the overhang

Yeah that is a possibility it might look more odd from the side view after the cut as your still going to see under the plate as there is a spacer for those 4 last bolts.

The roll bar starts to taper in right past the cross member. If I square off the back end the corner won't poke out as it is in the picture above. Id like to retain the flange from end to end.

Wondering, would this work for those with hard tops that want to go topless? Or do the soft tops have different hardware up top?

I like the length like you have originally designed It.
Sent in a reservation this morning for the hardtop version.
Looking forward to it!

Thought y’all took my Bronco for a second. 😂 first Carbonized gray I’ve seen running the bronze fuels like me! This looks like an awesome option for soft top, I might cave and order one.

Looks great. Can you tell me about your rail/steps setup?

Thanks! These are N-Fab RKR rails with steps. Super easy install and great quality for the price. The steps are bolt on for easy removal if you need to get that ground clearance back for off-roading. Has N-Fab on my previous vehicle and love all their products.

I posted some pics on page 2 of the hard top version. the doesn't have the dips in the side rails for the soft top clearance. Its a straight rail with 11 cross bars vs the 9 of the soft top rack.

As do I, It doesn't look like its over hanging much in person.

Ah, should have mentioned that I have a 2D, which it seems doesn't get too much love.

It would be great to get one in time to buy a Christmas tree.

The first 25 racks will be shipping by Halloween. So it should be plenty of time. I'll be driving up to the Tahoe NF and cutting down ours hauling it on the rack back down the hill for sure. 18 foot ceilings at home I should look interesting driving down I-80 with a 16 plus foot tree on top of my convertible Bronco.

looks neat...but makes something like the jtops shade useless as it appears you'd have to decide between one or the other.

Not impossible for someone wanting to run both. you would have to punch holes in the top for the bolts but the rails could sit right on top of a Jtops cover.
