Been shopping for a hard top, and am looking for some advice. Quadratec and 4 Wheel Drive Hardware both offer Bestop and Pavement Ends 1 piece units with upper doors for about a $200 difference between the brands.

Which is the best (or better) hard top for my 2004 TJ, and where's the best place to buy? They're both talking about $200 just for shipping, and I gotta take it off the truck!

Thanks!

You might try Collins bros
They are in Wylie,TX

Collins Bros is good, but HIGH.

Best place to find a hardtop is in your local jeep clubs.  They have EE's just like this board.

Best hard top to get?  Factory.  TJ hard tops can be found used from $750 to $1200.  Of course, full hard doors work best with hard tops.

Me personally - I have no use for the things.  They are hard to get on and off.... if I lived up north, then yes.  But down here - my Jeep is a convertible in the summer, and a ragtop in the winter.


Check/post here if you are local to DFW.  There are clubs all over Texas.

I see flawless ones for sale from Sahara's with all the options, from time to time for right around $1000.

Thanks for all those links! I'll start checking into them.

Now you're just trying to make me look dumb.....or lazy.....or both.

Thanks again, I didn't even think to check JC Whitney. I figured they usually stocked lesser-quality stuff. So far, they've got some of the best prices for new tops.

Get on the jeep forums like jeepsunlimited.com, Rubiconownersforum.com and look in the for sale section. TONS of hard tops brand new for sale. I just sold the top off my 03 TJ
