Tonneau, windjammer & soft top - fully closed and waterproof

[BMF]

Hello,

Nice to meet you all. I’m a new Jeep owner.

Any recommendation for a fully closed, and waterproof option for a softcover, windjammer, and tonneau cover for the JLU?

The rampage Bestop configuration as an example is nice but has a gap behind the rear passengers doors in front of the windjammer on each side.

thanks!

Thanks for posting this. It is similar to what I was referring to... looks cool... though the California tops version looked like a better option... I still can’t find the site....

thanks.

I thought California Tops sold to Suntop. I could be wrong. I have the Suntop, not the best material. It's just like the old Jeep softop. That being said, it gets the job done, jeep stays dry. I bought the cargo top option which is what you were looking for, and a fastback.

For what it's worth, I purchased the Rampage tonneau (duster). After installing it, I used my soft top in 'safari' mode exclusively. As long as the Jeep is flat or pointed uphill, no water intrudes even in HEAVY rain. I never installed the sides or back again.

That’s the one... thank you!

Not a problem! I actually had it open in a tab on my phone because someone posted the link in another thread and I’ve been interested in it myself.

Do you know if this works with a hard top Jeep? I assume it would need a bar by the cargo area and on top of the doors...

I also wonder if this will fit on top of the tuffy security deck cargo setup?

@BMF; best I can tell, he doesn’t have the door surrounds installed in his pictures...the tailgate bar is questionable. I seem to remember the other post said everything you need came with the top. I’ll try to find that thread...

It looks like to me, that as long as the enclosure is below the sides of the cargo area, that it wouldn’t interfere with this top...looking at the tuffy enclosure, I would only be concerned about where it meets the tailgate. Whatever bar this top uses across the tailgate may not work with the tuffy enclosure...

@TBULL52; did the California top come with everything needed to install or do you have to reuse some of the OEM soft top parts like the tailgate bar?
