Just a quick note. I love the top and ease to install mounting bracket. Issue after a year I have a strap that busted that anchors back portion of cover. Now I have one side flapping in the wind.
Not sure on how long the straps are expected to last but figured at least a couple years.
Other than that it works and looked nice on my Scout.

Found out during installation that another piece of equipment is required at $[XX]. We were unaware of this. etrailer wants to charge $[XX] to return the top. We will eat the cost and write it down as a lesson learned…..don’t do business with etrailer again!



by:

I do not recommend this top unless you always drive slower than 35 miles per hour. At just over 35 miles per hour the top flaps so hard it beats itself loose of the straps. I contacted etrailer and they indicated this is a common problem and was referred to Best Top. No answer yet.



by:

The product appears to be good quality and installation was fine. The problem I have is the back of the safari top canvas has no support and at 35 mph or more the canvas flaps violently. All the straps are as tight as they can go. Without some retrofit solution this safari top can not be used for normal road driving. It's too bad because the product does seem to be good quality, they just should have put a little extra effort into the flapping problem. I would not recommend this product.



by:

This is the second Best top I have had. The first was great but eventually the weather an UV got to the straps on it and had to replace. Probably 10 yrs. Had no hesitation to buy a best top again.

E trailers had a good price and I've purchased from them in the past. Always great service and fast economical shipping. I've never had any problems with their products so I've never had to call their customer service but I'm sure it's just as good as as their shipping I'm sure it would be outstanding.



by:

  • Recommendation for No-Drill Bikini Top for 1982 Jeep CJ8 Scrambler
    For your 1982 CJ8 Scrambler, I recommend looking at the Bestop Traditional Bikini with Windshield Channel - Black # B5250801-B51209. This traditional bikini soft top will include the necessary windshield channel for installation. To install the windshield frame, you will need to drill 3/32 inch holes to insert the included snap studs. We do not currently offer a windshield channel for your 1982 Scrambler that will not require some drilling. I have attached the installation details on...
