    It's that time of year again - Hardtop appreciation thread!

    I've never had a hard top so it might be a case of I don't know what I'm missing. But so far here in CO I haven't missed not having one. I do keep my TJ in the garage nights which might have something to do with it but even driving thru a blizzard to Crested Butte last weekend the soft top...

    What hitch wiring harness do I need?

    If you get the 4-flat plug in connector from Jeep make sure you get the one for 04 - 06 TJs. I innocently went to the parts counter and got a plug in harness for my 06 and the spent the better part of a day trying to figure out why my LR tail light and brake light wouldn't work. After doing...

    Any thoughts on this Tuff Design bumper?

    Not sure I have a silver dollar to bet but when I talked to them on the phone they said they were in Wisconsin. There seems to be a slew of "off-brand" bumper manufacturers on ebay and most seem to have a good rep and a good product. I can't see spending a lot more $$ for a name brand so I'll...

    Any thoughts on this Tuff Design bumper?

    Came across this company that seems to offer a good value bumper package. I never heard of the company and didn't come up with anything on this forum when I did a search. I was wondering what you all thought about it or if you had any experience with it. Thanks... Page Title

    Rear bumper with hitch or bumber with hitch and spare tire carrier?

    Thanks for the suggestions. What I was really after though is why do folks pay the xtra $$ to get a bumper with an attached tire mount as opposed to just getting a bumper without the mount as JFRABAT is thinking of doing. I'm guessing it might have something to do with the weight of the bigger...

    Rear bumper with hitch or bumber with hitch and spare tire carrier?

    Hi - need some advice once again. I need to add a receiver hitch to my 06 TJ and I'm thinking of getting one that's integrated into a rear bumper. A lot of choices - some come with just the bumper/hitch and some come with the bumper/hitch/spare tire mount and I don't know which version to get...

    OK for a Rubi HT on a 06 TJ?

    Hi - just wanted to check with the experts out there before I waste a nice Sat afternoon. I have an 06 TJ X and I made an offer on a used hard top from a Rubi (not sure the year). From my research I don't see any problem with the fit but just wanted to see if anybody know of any potential...

    tape residue on soft top window

    Hey guys, thanks a lot for the suggestions. Since I had a can of WD-40 I gave that a try and it worked like a charm, no more residue!!:-)

    tape residue on soft top window

    Hi all - thanks to everyone who made suggestions on another thread on which jeep to get. The decision was made easier for me when my DD had some problems that made me want to trade it in rather than sink any more money into it. Ended up getting a good deal on an 06 Wrangler X, 4.0, MT. Played...

    Keepin the dog in...

    Well - I got if figured out. Ran a tie down strap across the back from the soft top struts. Connected a 1ft short leash to that. He can run side to side but still can't get too far. Now I just got to figure out a solution for dog hair everywhere...

    Keepin the dog in...

    Hi - Haven't found my YJ yet but still looking hard. I plan to take the back seat out for storage and dog space. My problem is that my dog (lab/golden mix) is a bit independent and I'm afraid he might decide to jump out if the top is off. He'd probably only do it once but I'd rather not go...

    Which TJ would you start with?

    Thanks again. So where I'm at now is a YJ (91 - up) or a TJ (look for Dana rear), mileage doesn't matter that much as long as it was well maintained. A lot will depend on what kind of a deal I can find. Anything else to consider? One more newbie question (can't help it, sorry). A guy I work...

    Which TJ would you start with?

    Thanks for all the advice. Should I be scared off by mileage? For example, if I went with a TJ I can find a few on Autotrader that are under $7K but with high (>100K) miles. Is there a mileage you would recommend staying under?

    Which TJ would you start with?

    Hi all, new to the forum, need some advice. After years of mild off-roading with non-Jeep 4WDs I decided to come over to the Jeep side:-) ! My budget is about $10K. I'm hoping for some advice on which year, model, options, etc. you all would look for in shopping for a stock TJ that is easy to...
