Soft Top tailgate Receiver $1800 for a bracket ?!

[swaynette]

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 product is solid stainless. Fit exactly the same. Easy to adjust. came with stainless bolts. Highly recommended.

Since fresh in my mind, here's how I would do it again
1) install reinforcements. Too bad they don't leave access holes to tight these after top in place.
2) put top in place. should set down on the pins. doesn't sit level since weight in the back. line up the holes. don't bother tightening completely. just snug up.
3) install latch points in the top rail. leave loose.
4) close the top. make sure clipped to (3). latch the front. that's tough. hope it gets easier.
5) loosen mounting bolts. it'll settle in. tighten.
6) can now tighten bolts in top rail from inside with top closed.
7) install M2M receivers (catch set) and close the back
8) I haven't installed my windows yet.
9) open the top and go for a ride.

enjoy the summer!

I've just ordered mine from M2M. FingersCrossed!!

This product is great. Installs in 20min. Alot easier to close the top.
