Turn Offroad | Aftermarket Hard Top NOW AVAILABLE

[mmorgan]

If you getting it in Colorado, Ill wager its only 4 days till its in your driveway. reference my detailed post on the massive protective crate it come in. very well protected, the route website tracker that I was sent was never loaded by the carrier, the estes tracker was and was accurate.
get your install team prepped.
my son in law, removed the back screws holding the protective plywood on and just lifted it out rather than sliding it out per the video----- hes a big young strong guy, not a short old weak fart like me. handled that top like a feather. installed it perfectly.

Curious, I watched the Turn install video but it did not show the uncrating. Do you have the link that shows the uncrating? Been considering the best way to do that.

Great, that's what I wanted to see.

mine did not come in that type of packaging. it was a double walled wooden crate wrapped in shrink-wrap . very very well protected.

see my earlier post on the mistakes i made in cutting the shrink-wrap and the method my son in law did to open the crate and remove the hard top, installed in 20 minutes using hand tork not power tools the way the video show. power tools are the easy to go.

Installed the new top on Friday. Solid product. Love it.

What’s the word with the 2 door version?

I have the same exact issue.

I'll probably have to do the same thing as you. I will try adjusting the top back slightly more but like you mentioned mine is pretty flush and I don't want to cause overhang.

I live in Florida so it basically rains every other hour. Luckily, this is a second vehicle kept in a garage, or it would be a big problem. I went to the gym yesterday and it started raining hard for about 30 minutes - I already planned for this potentially happening and put a regular bath towel on the bottom of the tailgate area in case. Good thing I did that as the towel was completely soaked when I removed it.

I have the same problem. It was a big leak on the left side. I adjusted the tailgate and reduced it (still need to verify, wait for long rains).

I have some other issues with moisture and it's getting worse with the new window. Anyone has a similar problem?

Why wait for rain? Just put your sprinkler on your roof for 5 minutes - Voila!

The funny thing is that it works only for that big leak, which I guess I remediated or at least reduced. The moisture comes from an unknown source as the liner absorbs it and spreads it across. Basically, right now almost all the parts where the bolts are located are wet, along with the bottom part of the glass. Before I changed the glass, it only happened on the left side, but right now it’s affecting both sides. I’m not sure how to troubleshoot it, and drying all of that stuff takes time. I’m afraid with the rainy season, it could become a big problem...

Finally got around to installing the new rear window with wiper/etc.

Couple of things were different than the install video (but nothing I couldn't figure out)
The cable run that goes along the bottom from the motor was already done.
The wiper arm was not installed, but easy to do.
The washer nozzle also needed to be installed.

The hardest thing was getting the mounting screws lined up, with only my 5'0" wife to help me.
Once that was done, everything else was a breeze.
I did have one issue when testing the washer- the hose popped off and sprayed my cargo area with cleaning fluid. (Some electrical tape fixed that).
Even found a new use for the Rockworks bolts (see pic 4)

Finally paid for mine and was hoping it'd ship Friday but no update yet. I'm patient....

Was anyone else not able to buy insurance when ordering?

Any word on a flippable front section? It was mentioned a *long* time ago, but since their backlog is 4-6 months according to their website... I'm not optimistic. But that's required for me to be interested. :/

Yes, I forgot about this!
I love my TOR top, but this would be a welcomed addition.
I'm guessing the success of the top (and the failures of some "*ahem" competitors) have made @Turn Offroad extremely busy.
I'm guessing some of the add-ons they have in the works, like this, the custom badge options, etc. have all just had to tale a back seat for a bit while they crank out tops.

I bought weatherstripping from Amazon and applied it to the tailgate's top edge as @kingcon99 did; it works beautifully for the rear leak. My Bronco's tailgate is somewhat misaligned or warped from the factory so I would lean towards that as the reason I have a slight gap in the rear. I can't fault Turn for that.

I'll try to adjust the alignment when I decide to install the Turn tailgate reinforcement and see if that helps.

I wasn't able to stop water intrusion in the front with latch/top adjustments; however, the seal that Turn sent (I believe you have it as well) works great.

Thanks! I am waiting for rains to test the tailgate fix and see if the adjustment helped or I need to go with the weatherstrip as you. I more worried about moisture in the corners as the liner adsorb it and I don't know the original source.
