Interesting, I am thinking maybe purchase one of these and have someone sew in a 2 inch strip, or one inch on either side to “stretch” it out. Rather than make it from scratch.

Bimini Top, windjammer, and tonneau cover setup. Rainproof for most part
Nice! I was considering the same. The only thing different was instead of that tonneau cover I was going to look into one of those metal security closures from Diobolical. I wasn’t a fan of removing / replacing the rear windows. I also always liked the look of the Hummer SUTs, so wanted to create something similar look with removable top. I took a discarded soft top and modified the rear piece to Velcro across the back of my tonneau cover and Velcro across the top roll bar . A local upholstery shop advised they could make it look super clean with buttons around the entire frame for $250.
Came to see a bikini top. Disappointed that all I saw was a Bimini top, so leaving this for others. You're welcome!Bikini top, Jeep windjammer, and Bronco vinyl tonneau.

I love your set up. But I can't find a tonneau cover anywhere by RERPRO like the one you have here with the straps all inside the Bronco so the tail gate can still open. Do you have an actual link to where you bought that? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Could you take a few pictures of how the window is attached at the top and bottom? I love that you repurposed a back window, very smart!Nice! I was considering the same.

Nosnowgo - I modified the RERPRO top and cut the straps off. The Rampage Trailview fastback top I bought has a channel that I repurposed with the RERPRO top. That allowed me to get ride of the straps and seals nice. Completely seals and rainproof. I have learned that the sides don’t seal well with the Velcro. It’s sad that Rampage doesn’t care to make the tonneau cover even thought the have parts from the Trailview fastback that seal nicely on the sides and back so it’s only a Matter of fabricating the cover. Seems like it would be an easy win for them since they solved the hard part making it waterproof. When I emailed Rampage they had no plans on creating the tonneau. I would be first in line to buy it and even test it out. The Rampage top worked out very well this past summer and the quality held up. No issues. Sorry for the delayed response here.
hey @Deebocubs, wondering if you experimented at all with the different wraparound windjammer options as there are several different models for different jeep models. Wondering which one fits best!

I didn’t explore other options outside of the Bestop 8003315 Wrap-Around Windjammer for 1997-2002 Wrangler. I didn’t want big gaps between rollbar and fabric and this one seemed the largest one that was close enough to the Bronco spec's so it works good enough.

Which windjammer is this? This looks like it will work for my setup.Nice! I was considering the same.
