Took my 2 daughters, and got to meet a lot of cool people.
Nice.. I'm jealous.
FINALLY found a decently priced used soft top (CJ5 stuff is hard to find and expensive ... a new top would have cost me between $800 and a grand!).
Top was $250 ... about half of what any other used complete soft top I found would cost.
Overall the top is in excellent shape (a couple scratches on the passenger side door window ... and someone cut and re-welded the passenger side door pins to get a slightly different offset so it doesn't fit quite right).
Was a bitch to install that's for sure, my jeep is a '70 with a windshield that I believed was from a '76-83 CJ5 but it could have been from a CJ8 too as it was installed to make the single cab hard top the Jeep came with work so the soft top doesn't fit exactly perfect, but it works well enough so I'm happy with it (and now we can take the dog with us in the Jeep which was the whole point in getting it in the first place).
At first I wasn't sure I'd like a blue top on a red Jeep but I figure if I get a Patriots bumper sticker on it I can piss off some Bronco fans :)

There's everything from super hard core trails to very mild trails. Your rubi would do fine on lots of trails out there.
Where is the video of the Ford Crown Vic at Moab?
Man, we need to go wheelin! Badass CJ5 pics and moab inspiration... I may have to just go crawl something because... I'm looking for a tranny builder at the moment. Can't throw too much money at it this month, but I'd like to have it built before June.
Yes we do! Some guys on another forum are going to run Liberty and Independence next week. I don't think my rig is ready for those yet. I sure would love to get up into the mountains and play. Even an easy trail would be great!Quote:
