Title: HardTop Question
Post by: fullsink18 on June 23, 2006, 01:35:52 PM
A guy I work with bought a 96 tracker and it came with a soft top and the guy threw in a hard top.  My co-worker said he would sell the hard top really cheap. Is made out of some type of hard plastic.

Questions:

Will it fit my 94 kick?
Should it come with some hardware? (i dont think he got any from the seller)

hard tops fit all years, as all the soft top hardware needs to be removed. Depending on the brand, It should come with 2 mounts in the rear with bolts, that's about it, although mine requires 1/4" spacers for the front clips to lower them a little.

Does anyone have a picture of the 2 mounts in the rear for the hardtop.  If I have a pic of the hardware i need to install this top I should be able to see if it is on my co-workers kick.  Thanks

Thanks.  Now I have an idea of what to look for.  If he does not have the brackets is there anybody that sells just the hardware?

The hard top is definitely on the cheap side.  Feels like it is made out of a textured plastic.  Has carpet inside and the rear window has defrosters.  I need something for winter cause the way the snow blows up home it comes under my soft top and makes a drift on my drivers seat.

My hard top leaks snow sometimes, I'm getting rid of it cause it's squeaky, and it doesn't hold any more heat than the soft top.
Anyway, if you have metal tools, you could make the brackets out of aluminum, I can take some measurements of mine if you like, just PM me, as I'll probably forget to check back on this thread.
