yxmj Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Do you have a pic of it folded / rolled up against the cab....leaving the box open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertRat1991 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Looks good on that color truck. Sort of M35 looking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone wants it to look perfect they probably should get a conventional camper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gogmorgo Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I've looked into it but I've never been super impressed with the commercially available soft toppers. In addition to the lack of decent looking fit (nothing is actually designed for the MJ, just vehicles with similar dimensions) none of them really seem to have decent solutions for throwing a canoe or something on top. I seem to recall a member on here building their own. If I had the resources that would be the route I'd take. Get the tubes bent myself for an exoskeleton sort of look maybe, hanging the canvas inside the frame, or else figure out a way to get a roof rack to poke through the canvas without compromising it or having any water leaks.

DirtyComanche Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I debated it because a topper is nice half the time, and an open box is nice the other half... But I don't think one would hold up to the snow loading it would see here when I leave the truck parked outside. I've debated building something like a modular topper, say a steel frame with individual panels on it that can be removed. That way I could pull the topper off without other people/my hoist, 'fold it up' and store it in my shed. However that's just a thought for the time being.

thejum57 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 That is SOOOO cool!!!! I personally have what we in the Eastern MA call a Cap, others call it a topper. Mine is on in winter and off in summer, have a pulley system in my garage to hoist it. Plus, it's lockable, and secure, minus, it's heavy and requires 2 people to install, remove, or a pulley system. Only drawback to this one is security. Otherwise it is just bad @$$ Millitary looking!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
