Rampage TrailView Fastback Soft Top for 2 door Bronco -- installed first impressions & photos

[indio22]

She looks great! Just need a little sun to get the wrinkles cleaned up. The window storage up top is a handy and a pocket on a shirt!

Nice to have this top option. Can someone advise regarding the effort and time require to remove and re-install just the top fabric section?

I like driving with the entire top off. So I would want to remove the windows and top, and roll/stuff them behind the back seat or somewhere in the vehicle. Just leaving the bows/linkages. Is that an option?

Yes, I posted a video of how to remove it earlier in the thread, it would only take maybe a few min

Yes a riv nut tool is required

Yea. there is $45 dollar tool on Amazon that I got and was easy to use.

@Broncobro04 dis you get a whistle from the front? Starts at about 65 mph, I am gonna have to go home and do some investigating. I have it all closed up with all the windows in for my first run.

Update: found a loose button on the front, hope that fixes my issue!

Quick question.....ordered mine on Thursday night and apparently it will be in my driveway on Sunday! With this riv nut tool...are we drilling into the rollbar? Are we not using existing bolts?? Thanks! And have a great Memorial Weekend all.

That should fix the issue. I don’t have any whistling on mine. Also the instructions mentioned something about adjusting the pieces that the top hooks into up front. If it still whistles after the button, I’d look into that

No drilling required, there are a few holes in the top of the roll bar (not sure why) but the top comes with rivnuts that fit into those holes, as well as all new hardware

Question for 2 door install. Does it get 2 rivnuts or 4? The bracket looks like it won't line up with the 1st and 3rd hole if I put rivnuts in those?

I believe I used two on each roll bar. I didn’t have any issues with lining it up. Feel free to dm me

Yeah Nevermind, I just looked close at your pictures and I was holding the bracket on backwards. All makes sense. I’ll DM you if I have any questions along the way. Thanks!

Well still rumbles once I hit 65 and above. I am going to pull out check the support bars in the morning and see if that is my issue.

We have rain in the forecast, so I finally put mine on after having it in the box for a week. I really like it. It does help a ton if you can get the top out in the sun for an hour or so to get it warm. I will stretch better to get the front part assembled. I am very pleased with the quality and how it all fits. I took it through the drive thru car wash and had zero leaks. My wife loves how easy it is to open to top above the front seats. After five hard top on and offs this Spring, I am much happier.

Awesome man, did you use a touchless car wash or regular one? And was it a basic wash or one with upgrades like ceramic, tire shine, etc? I’ve been scared to take mine through yet

Touchless, I just use basic.

Got mine on. Haven't put windows on yet as there is no rain in the forecast. Install was very easy and first time using a rivnut tool went well. This is the exact product I've been waiting for. Great quality and price too.
