    thanks for that. i'm still excited about the possibility of a pickup. could this be the reason AEV is discontinuing the Brute? or am I misunderstanding their information? https://www.aev-conversions.com/vehicles/brute-double-cab (bottom of the page)...

    roof rack access from inside

    thanks. the first video is a "more practical" option for me. I could also never afford the ER although there are a number of ideas to be drawn from it. Q: if a Jeep payload is only 1,000#, how are folks dealing with it? or is it completely ignored, and the parts simply kept going on?

    Converting a factory JK/JKU hardtop to modular

    beautiful job and excellent tutorial. of course I doubt i'd have the courage, but it's great to understand the steps. ps: really like the idea of the tub extension.

    "... not sure how far I'll push the development of the Safari Cab hardtop..." you'd only have to push one as far as new england!

    shouldbeasy's 'home away from home' 2017 4x4 Sprinter build

    this looks like it's shaping up into a great rig. interesting how meticulous the wiring and hidden mechanics are, and then there's those speaker things ... hope they are only temporary! following along.

    Barn Door for JK factory hardtops

    i'm really confused and in all honesty haven't read all 92 pages of this thread. Q: is the top an aftermarket GR8TOP? Q: is the back door an aftermarket door? Q: are those cute little windows aftermarket? in another thread I was informed this was all one-off invention and fabrication, but...

    roof rack access from inside

    I was thinking of an Ursa Minor style tent full mount on the vehicle. but on the same subject, if the vehicle is ever moved, the tent would surely be closed. is there any reason the clamshell style couldn't open forward? like suicide doors on '50s cars .... oohh ... I think I know why now ...

I thought it was an aftermarket and struggled to figure why someone would have those windows and then put a rack on so they couldn't be seen. well, I guess my idea of a nautical hatch skylight might make Expo history if no one else chimes in to say "I...

    jeebus; you don't care how I spend my money, eh? seriously, I have no idea what "recon" is and it's not in the brochure so i'm up ****te's Creek there. but I do remember a very smokey, hazy, trip to Provincetown Massachusetts in a "big" model Golden Eagle in about that same year. I was...

    I know so little of the breed I just assumed the three models you mentioned were more SUV than utilitarian. there's some rumor in the mill that 2019 will bring out a pickup. the picture (rendering) showed it to be a 5 window cab (line the '49 GMC your grandfather drove at the garage). that would...

    I agree with that, but I will be needing "something" so trying to make a fairly informed decision.
