What to Look for in a Jeep Soft Top

The best Jeep Wrangler soft top can be subjective in a lot of areas. Do you opt for matching door skins? Tinted or clear windows? Fastback or OEM style replacement? What color should you get? Answers to these questions will come down to personal preference, but there are other features that determine the quality of a soft top. Primarily fabric type and thickness. The thicker the material, the more insulating it’ll be and generally the more durable. Soft top thickness is measured in ounces, with the heaviest weighing in at 30 oz. Some fabrics come with UV and mildew resistance coatings. These are stable attributes that guarantee a long living soft top.

Soft Top Hardware Considerations

Some aftermarket tops require changes to the bowing system on your Jeep. Often proprietary by brand, be sure to confirm whether your new top comes with the necessary hardware. Not all aftermarket soft tops will include items like the windshield header. You can purchase the hardware separately if needed. Before throwing out your old frame and hardware, consider the chances of returning your rig to stock.
