Thanks for that BDS builder insight! That really helps define the challenges for a DYI drop gate conversion. Saw Ford's concept at SEMA '25 with a drop gate teasing us further.
Ford is teasing 6G Bronco owners with a drop tailgate retro by Ford featuring a Bronco Roadster concept Many of us are looking for more utility with our 6G Broncos that struggle to haul longer cargo then the Jeep like swing gate allows.
This is exciting to see live at SEMA but when I...
I had my roll cage wrapped to match my hood and rear wrap material. This way my JTop Safari top blends in nicely without the lighter paint color showing between the fabric top and factory black trim around side windows.
Hi Mike - Many of the images on the JTOP site and customer pics show this same slight air gap I'm seeing up front. The top is far forward as possible as the center bracket stops if from going forward further(where where the Jtop top hooks connect to). Is there a recommended 1/8" trim around...
Hi Mike - Since the convertible top bracket is mounted from above down to the overhead frame over the safari top covering only part of your access opening, could you in future just provide 2 screw holes I wonder for a cleaner more water tight fit? For my current open areas I may need to...
Yes, tons of info on the 6G forum indeed. Discovered JTops there and just installed by canvas safari top that seems to offer the most protection for water intrusion over the cabin area. Love the over the side rail look JTop offers that the competition does not (y)
Just installed my JTop Safari top on my '21 Badlands. Really impressed with canvas quality and fitment! With the softop assembly off for the season, looking for a way to cover the rear access holes for the convertible top for rainproofing over the cabin area. Is there a Velcro patch to make...
Yikes --- I just spoke to my service dept. at the local Ford Dealership and he shared the stress test would be running the motor at 5,000 RPM for an hour! With the slim chances of having one of those bad valves, I may roll the dice rather than have my Bronco tortured like that. And... If my...
Totally agree with Buzpro, silver is easy to keep looking clean. Perhaps the metallic flake helps. But then silver is also one of the worst to have to paint to match if any body damage repair needs to be done ;)
Hi Sylvian,
I have Badlands handles (Orange) and looking for Big Bend (Grey). Sounds like we're a match for a swap assuming yours's are in perfect cond. as are mine. Best to reach me via cell if you are interested in a trade.

Best option I've seen from the aftermarket so far... As others are asking on this thread as well, please forward a product link if this is Bronco part, not a retrofitted Jeep bikini top.
Getting our rigs level is the mission for sure. Up in the front or down in the back... WIth the Sasquach adding 4/10 of an inch lift plus the 35" tire elevation, loosing an inch" for a clean look in the rear sounds like a good 2nd option.
Better yet having an adjustable rear suspension would...
