New Bronco Raptor JTops Bimini installed photos

Those Raptors now look even better (which is hard to imagine)! Love your product @JTopsUSA and Mike! I get a bunch of compliments on my 4 door soft top AGM Badlands with the JTops bimini! So nice

Any way this would work with a Raptor with a softtop? I am thinking about putting on a soft top and would like the JTop under it. Or would it be put on and take off with the soft top down?

I dont see it working the way the soft top assembly attaches to the frame. It would be easier to just put it on after putting the soft top down as its mostly velcro.

Approx 10 min to install the JTop?

You bet, go ahead!

I haven't taken any that really show the top itself and now that it's hot as the sun in Dallas the hard top is back on for a couple of weeks.

Easy installation. I've made a couple of adjustments since the initial install.

• I ended up ordering a velcro replacement kit a few weeks ago as the rear quarter section of the top stretched wider than I had laid the original strips so I now have full overlap of top to velcro. Lesson to new buyers that the rear quarter section widens out so the velcro should be applied in a similar manner.
• Trimmed down a small grommet on the rear cross bar that was poking into the vinyl.
• Stretched/Tightened the rear velcro sections as my original install probably wasn't as tight as I could have gotten in.
• Tightened the rear cross-bar straps to make sure the aluminum rod cleared the two little knobs on the rear roll-bar.

Before Additional Velcro Section Added (top stretches wider than velcro was applied):

After Additional Velcro Section Added (top now has 100% coverage with the velcro):

Great shots! Thank you. This is helpful to others.
We will check and make sure velcro is long enough. Better extra than not enough. Thanks so much for this feedback.

Wow that looks really good. I was thinking of getting the steel, or titanium for my Bronco. Since I have an Oxford white and a Gunmetal grey theme going I was thinking maybe one of those two colours would look good when the soft top is down.

Just to be clear, the Velcro provided was the perfect length. I just applied it too narrowly along the rear roll bar. Nothing wrong with the items provided I just needed to apply the Velcro a little wider.

Thanks for the clarification. We have had a few go out with it being too short. It’s frustrating for the customer so it’s best to error on the long side.
Thanks again, Mike

What lock box is that in the rear?

What lock box is that in the rear?

its the Tuffy Deluxe Enclosure. Very secure and relatively affordable, especially when you do a search and find a discount.


I wanted to install the Diabolical Slipstream as it’s more functional but costs almost 3x ($1400 before any available discounts).

thanks. Will research now. Does it hinder your subwoofer Or create a subwoofer bellowing sound?

Not that I’ve noticed. The biggest drawback is that the lid blocks access for the TopLift Pro for easier removal of the hardtop. The RollNJack is an alternative but still have to cut the arms to give sufficient access.

Also with the BRaptor the lid is useless as the rear brace basically blocks it from opening. Not an issue for non-BRaptors but something to note.
