Hi all,
I have an 83 CJ7 and was wondering if a half hard top from a Scrambler
would fit on a CJ7. Also, are there any after market producers of Half
Hardtops for the CJ7?

I want this to fit with Full Hard doors for winter time driving and I don't
like the full hard top as an option. Too big and bulky.

Thanks for any help, comments, or suggestions.

This one's on Ebay right now... looks like a dealer though.

Well, I don't want to buy the whole jeep just to get a half hard top :-).
Looks, though, like the vertical bar on the roll bar on a cj8 allows for the
half hard top as it is vertical with no slope. This is different from the
CJ7 which has a degree of slope. So in this case would the Roll bar on the
CJ7 need to be modified to allow the CJ8 Half Hard top to fit?

Thanks,

Bill

The roll bar on the CJ8 doesn't come into contact with the hard top. Maybe
the CJ8 roll bar mounting point is positioned further back than a CJ7's.
You need space for the lower portion of the top (the part that mounts to
the floor), and maybe the CJ7's start too close.

You may want to take a look and some measurements against a CJ8 before you
buy. I have a feeling the CJ7 roll bar would interfere with the lower
portion of the hardtop.
