Enjoyed the video and loved how you laid everything out first before doing the job. So many kids today just are pathetically unaware of how important it is to be organized. Or, how if you take some time, it saves time, in the long run. Have a nice day.

I just finished installing the Bestop on a 2022 Bronco. The customer complained that the factory soft top was noisy and leaked real bad. I've installed well over a hundred Bestop soft tops on Jeep Wranglers, but this was my first Bestop installation on the new Bronco. Once I figured a few things out with the installation of this top, I should be able to do the next one by myself in a couple of hours. Thanks for making this video.

Great video! Which material top did you go with? The black twill or black diamond? Not sure that the difference is
@soolegarage2 жыл бұрын
I went with the black twill, If I'm not mistaken it was advertised as the thicker material. And for me thicker meant less road noise, I truly believe this top is quieter than the OEM top I had previously.

Could you please do a detailed video on opening the top and the various positions available?
@soolegarage2 жыл бұрын
Doing a bit of traveling right now but I will try to get it done. The top only opens to one position, however the position is all the way back exposing front and back seat area. Also very easy to open just unlatch and lift it back. they include some velcro straps that you can secure it in the open position. Love the top just drove 1400 miles and was impressed with the comfort and noise level. drove through hard rain and no issues at all.

I'm so glad I bought this top for my bronco. I'm just annoyed that I even had to. This should've been the factory top. Ford did such a crappy job engineering their top. It was such a pain trying to get the windows back in if you took them out. Buckling the buckles at the top of the windows, was insanely difficult when you had to do it with your hand inside of the opening that you were trying to close with the buckles. And you hit the nail on the head calling it a "covered wagon" look. My soft top looked absolutely awful. It was lumpy and misshapen, looked like somebody just tossed a blanket onto the roof. Not for nothing, but Ford should be paying for these tops for us. With the price that these Broncos came in at, a tight well fitted leak free top should be a no-brainer.

Considering making the same swap, I 100% agree on the upgraded look. How would you compare the quality and ease of operation between the OEM and Bestop? I’ve seen some comments about the Bestop being more wobbly and harder to open up than the OEM.

Thickness of material is very similar, Trek top is very high quality. I have no problem opening up the back, and its much easier after you have done it a few times. With the OEM top didn't like how it only opens 6 inches and then a prop rod holds it up. It is slightly more difficult to fold back the top into the sunder position because your are folding back more material, hardware. But the advantage is you are more open air than fold back position one with the OEM. The Trek top is a great top I am happy with my purchase.

Can the TrekTop come off completely and be put back on reasonably quick? Example… I want to go totally topless for a couple days…
@soolegarage2 жыл бұрын
sure it can come off , however I have not removed it only folded it back. When folded back it exposes both rows of passengers to the open air.

1. Do you live in a cold climate that gets snow? If so… how was your first year in the winter?
@soolegarage2 жыл бұрын
I live in Colorado, had about 20 inches of snow pile up on top and no problems at all. The cab seriously stays toasty with the soft top great heater and the top impressed me during the winter. I guess thats why they call it an all season top. I have not taken the top completely off.

I wish this best top could go down like a convertible 😩 that’s the only thing that’s stopping me from getting it
@soolegarage2 жыл бұрын
That is an advantage of the OEM soft top, however when the trek top is back in the sunder position it opens up pretty far, the rear passengers are in total open air. And if you pull out the windows it is very open. You are probably aware the OEM top will not fold all the way down unless you remove the windows. I purchased the trek top because I like the look and quality of it.
