Hard top into canopy

Postby 4wd26 on Thu Aug 07, 2008 2:53 am

Has anyone attempted to fit a hardtop into a vehicle with a canopy?

I need to pick up the hardtop from ARB after the put on a canopy will it fit inside? or will I need a trailer?

More info- its just the flat bit I don't have to fit the rollbar etc. And I don't mind if it sticks out he back.

For everyones information.

The flat back will NOT fit into a ARB canopy.

It also apears that the tray height on the dual cabs are higher in the wall than our single cab bretheren. Therfore a rollbar from a dual cab will NOT fit a single cab without fabrication (about 3" difference- raised required)

Beak- sorry for the stuff around but appreciate you helping me get BOTH bits to my place

Anyone interested in a silver hardtop and bar?

no problem, glad I could help mate

it may also be due to the back of the dual cab being lower than the single cab mate
