        Review & Install Video

        I'm Ryan from ExtremeTerrain.com, and this is my review of the Surco Hard Top Carrier fitting all 1987 to 2016 Wranglers. This is for those of you who want to both move and store your hardtop both easily and safely. My first choice for storing a hardtop is always a hardtop hoist, but if you don't have the ceiling height or the garage space for that, this is a really nice option as well. This won't help you install and uninstall a hardtop like a hoist will, but if you're looking to both move and store the top easily and safely, this is a nice option. This carrier is built from tube steel that's covered in a textured black powder-coat, so it's going to hold up pretty well for you over time. It has a couple of rubber foam cushions to help protect your hardtop from scratches when it's on the carrier. And it comes with four casters, two of which are lockable to help you get the hardtop on and off of the carrier without it moving around. This carrier doesn't hold the top as firmly onto it as some of the other carriers that I've seen that have a little bit of a different bracket mechanism, and this doesn't have a safety strap to keep the top from falling off the cart once it's installed. This hardtop carrier is really simple, and there isn't too much to it. When you first take it out of the box, you will have to put it together. But after that, it doesn't take up a lot of floor space, so in my opinion, you won't have to take it apart and reassemble it every time you go to put the top on and off of it. There actually isn't any hardware, other than the casters themselves. They are both structural, and they're what help you to move the hardtop around once it's put on the cart. These are the three parts that you'll see when you take this out of the box. You put them together by following the instructions and you're done. The whole assembly process shouldn't take you more than a half an hour, and all you need is a socket set. When you first look at the cost of this cart and then how simple it is, it might seem like it's priced a little bit high. But when you consider how much your hardtop is worth and how much it would cost to repair it if you were to scratch it while moving it around, all of a sudden it becomes worth the cost, in my opinion. And believe it or not, there are actually some carts out there that are even more expensive than this one. So if you want to be able to both store and move around your hardtop without the need of having a second set of hands around, this is a really nice option, if you can get past the price. So that's my review of the Surco Hard Top Carrier fitting all 1987 to 2016 Wranglers. You can find it right here at ExtremeTerrain.com.

        Function. Store your jeep's hardtops during off seasons on the Surco Hardtop Carrier.

        Design. It features four swiveling lockable caster wheels for easy maneuverability. Special molded rubber cushion pads safeguard the corners of the hardtop from dents and damages. This hardtop storage cart has a foam padded support bar that can be tilted to keep the top in an upright position.

        Construction. The hardtop carrier is made of steel with a black powder-coated finish.

        Application. This Surco Hard Top Carrier is designed to be used with all 1987-2018 Jeep Wrangler YJ, TJ, JK and JL models equipped with a Hard Top.

        5 Top Rated Questions

        How tall will this be, from the base of the cart to the top of the hardtop?

        • That would depend on the height of the hardtop, as not all hard tops are the same height and this cart works throughout the years and models.

        Hi, is there a cover that fits with this rack in order to protect it when in storage? Also, I read about window clamps. Do you sell these or do I need to buy some to secure the back window? I'm a new wrangler owner and want to make sure I protect my hardtop when I take it off! Thanks!

        • For the Surco Hard Top Carrier we do not carry a cover nor the window clamp at the moment. The clamp to hold the rear window is not required but is useful to ensure the window stays put.

        Do you use the inside holes or outside holes for a 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (4 door)? Should the rear bar be tilted forward or straight up when properly installed?

        • 2018 Model Wranglers will use the inside holes. The rear bar should be straight up when installed.

          DO NOT BUY!!

          DO NOT BUY. This top is poorly designed. it will damage your hardtop. It damaged and tore off both corners of my hardtop. Over $1000 in damage. Save your money. Learn from my mistake. 1 Star because there is no zero star.

          Bad fit

          There are two settings for either a JL or JK, but the setting for the JL did not hold the top. I attempted to jerry rig to get it to work better (added foam), but it has scratched the top. Seems like they made a quick fix to get it to work for the JL, but it doesn't.

          Excellent solution verses hoist!

          Excellent solution if you don't want to install and use the hoist. Easy install, very good quality, rolls extremely easy. reduces the overall foot print. Worth the cost to save the space, the convenience and to protect the top.

          ys i could have made something, but with a painted hard top i have reassurance. foam pads help set the top and tilt with ease and the window stays closed. they should add a strap or something, but i covered with moving blankets and tucked into corner of garage.

          While expensive, I feel better having a stand with wheels that was built specifically for the top. Easy to put together, and faster/safer than making my own. Having A painted top I used some moving blankets to cover. Should have bungy cords or something to secure is only recommendation

          CAREFUL IF YOU HAVE A JL

          Despite that it says this cart is compatible with the JL, it is a very poor fit. The hardtop will sit on the cart, but it is hanging on by a proverbial thread (only an inch or so of the bottom of the hardtop is on the padded "feet" of the cart and the roller barely keeps the hardtop tilted forward). I am going to drill a couple more holes to see if I can get it to seat correctly.

          So the brakes on the wheels don’t work so it’s incredibly hard to get the top on otherwise easy to put together and does save space in my garage but leaves some to be desired esp for the amount of money you pay for it
