Two-door jeeps are a bit of a gamble. All I know is that without removing the back section of the top, the front piece will not fit on a four-door Jeep.

It WILL NOT FIT WITH YOUR HARD TOP ON! I thought it would be a nice cover for my wife's new 4 door so she wouldn't have to deal with the heavy panels all of the time; it's almost as if they were almost finished and decided to sell it as is. In my opinion, they missed the boat. I guess it's a decent sunblock. The weather protection, on the other hand, is a. If you rely on this to keep the elements out of your Jeep, you'll get soaked. The hardtop must be removed in order for this to work.
The part and concept are cool, but the engineering design should have allowed for the use of the front to replace the Freedom Top's front section while keeping the hard top's rear in place. Because the size is too large and overlaps the back hardtop, this is not possible. The product's packaging could use some TLC, as the first time I ordered it, the corner was smashed and I had to return it. The second time around was a little better, but the company cut corners on the packaging, assuming that it would make it through UPS or FEDEX without needing to be packaged properly. It's a big box that's also very light. I work in the packaging industry, and this package is completely unacceptable. Because these parts aren't cheap, make sure you package them appropriately. The weatherstripping was also in bad shape out of the box, with tears and rips, as well as a smudge on the acrylic.
It is very simple to set up. At high speeds, it does not vibrate or shake. Because I run with the door off and have aggressive tires, it's already quite noisy. I'm not sure, but I think it might help to reduce noise.
THE SKYTOP WAS AWESOME. MAYBE THERE WAS A MISUNDERSTANDING WITH THE PERSON WITH WHOM I TALKED WHEN ORDERING. I INQUIRED IF IT WOULD FIT MY JEEP WITHOUT REMOVING THE BACK PIRTION OF THE TOP. IT WAS PROMISED TO ME THAT IT WOULD HAPPEN. br>IT HAS A DESIRE.
However, this is not the case. Wade Co. Why would you design something that only fits if the entire top (front and back) is removed? I purchased one and was unable to use it. When only the front two freedom panels were removed, I wanted to use it. Making a model that only works for the front requires very little additional engineering. I'll buy it again if you make one. However, things are as they are now. It's a complete waste of time.
The delivery was extremely quick. it appears to be excellent The wind makes it a little noisy, but what's a jeep without some wind? Overall, I'm pleased with my purchase, and I'm looking forward to receiving the rear.
The rain will not be kept out by this. It does not cover the gap between the roll bars and the doors in any way, so additional pieces will be required to keep rain off the inside of all doors and windows, among other things. Custom plexiglass pieces and a $300 door surround kit are the closest thing I've seen on the internet to making it work as stated.
