With ease, don't think we're sure of that yet. On my wrangler, I have to hop up onto my 35" rear tires in order to pull the soft top frame back up and over the rollbars. I'm 6 foot and the jeep only has a 2" lift.
I had to stand on the backseat of my JK and pull it up and over the rollbar. ?

I’m hoping the hard top allows you to keep the hard top over the driver and passenger seats like these pics. Kinda like a hard safari top.
I can’t really tell how the soft top attaches from this pic either. You can see the door cover though. ?

Somewhere it was posted that you can as long as it is at slow speeds. Because of the way it is attached to the frame, it wouldn’t work at high speeds.

Does anyone know if the soft top on the base model is tinted? I haven't seen it confirmed anyone.
Who knows, not much interest in Base to Big B? This would be a good time for Ford's Bronco Nation to share some stills/demo, functionality soft top, hard top panels vids on "all the trims" but I haven't seen much unless its got a sasquatch-package-beadlocks-bilstein yada-yada on the photo because that's where the trending steers them.

If that's the case, there's no back window in the soft top.
Nice concept but that would not be legal for highway use, unless of course you left it "Up"

Still no demonstration on soft top opening, removing, features, etc.. Ford about to go live with ordering and every day I see eye candy posts about wildtracks, and badlands
Did you watch this?

Details on the Bronco look exactly like the ULTRA

That tilt up feature of the soft was mentioned by Ford in a media release back in August. Said it gave quick access to cargo area.
Best Top is probably making these for Ford. All of them I have seen had zip out windows all the way around creating a safari top. My 76 Top was that way.
All Bronco tops are being made by Webasto. And Jeep tops no longer have zippers; the windows slide out. Bronco tops appear to be similar.

The JK top is hinged in the middle, you just flip it back. I'm a little over 6ft with a 2" lift and it's pretty fast and easy - no need to climb onto tires.

Don't worry, they'll put together another poorly-produced video in the 11th hour that does little to actually answer anything substantial.

Bestop Customer Service told me that they were making the soft tops, so they wouldn't have any third-party/aftermarket Bronco tops for the foreseeable future. All were heading to the Bronco factory.

Ford really needs to show us how the soft top works, since they made it standard on all 4DR. I want to see video on how it works, what you have to take off to fold it all the way down, all of that. My current plan is to go soft top only.

But without ever even having seen the real thing, let alone seen it in action, I won't place an order.

Really strange that they have not shown this yet, but parade around fishing and overlanding and what not accessory loaded concepts.
Ford are clamping down and pushing off as long as they can to the aftermarket guys. Ford wants to capitalize on selling their parts and accessories as long as possible.

Ford Bronco Possible Bronco Soft Top Rear Opening Feature Pic! + Carbonized Gray Badlands Antimatter Blue Bronco 3


Potential lever (or latch) to raise up the rear of the soft top once the back door is opened?

Webasto is making the OEM soft top.
i thought Webasto was only doing all of the hard tops, MIC and painted, but BestTop was doing the OEM soft tops.
