    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    Here you go. I'm 6' for reference, standing with one foot on the folded seat, one in the "trunk". With a flat floor (no seats) it would be very comfortable. My wife may now be joining me on my Utah trip, and I'm considering removing the seats making a flat floor with storage under the foot...

    "Survivor Truck"

    Seems a little patched together and hoaky from the pictures, but that's me. Armored with steel and fiberglass (and soft sides). I'd rather have a unimog or something. But I guess that is one way to get a bunch of free gear from "sponsors".

    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    If nobody does, I'll try to do that when I get home next week. With the rear seat folded, there's enough room to wiggle out of a wetsuit, but your feet will want to be right in the gap behind the seat. Or you can stand on the seat. Either way it would work okay, although it would be easier...

    New Four Wheel UTE Flat Bed Model Coming Soon ...

    Straying off topic here, but I think they are often just as bad. The frames aren't designed to carry the weight in that spot I think. Happens on a lot other trucks too. Heavier springs or helper springs that keep the weight on the factory spring hangers/shackles are probably the best thing...

    New Four Wheel UTE Flat Bed Model Coming Soon ...

    Eight speed auto from Chrysler? Good god what a nightmare in the making! Seriously though, this pop-up looks good and very practical. Glad to see someone finally going this route in the states.

    Pinch Seam

    I don't know, sawzall might not be as clean but at least it won't throw sparks!

    Pinch Seam

    I trimmed mine (jku), and stuffed some RTV sealant in there. Then I painted the area flat black. Some others I read have used JB weld in the small hole left behind. FYI if you use a cutoff wheel, beware of the expanding foam behind the pinch seam. It gets hot and smokes easily, the stuff...

    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    I didn't clarify well, but that's where mine was coming from. Where the front corner of the drivers door meets the top.

    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    I'm in the beginning of 17 days of working offshore. :( I come back on the 24th but I'm immediately packing and leaving for a weekend trip. But I have six weeks off, I'll be around when I'm not out by Utah. I got the wind noise from my drivers side as well. I was able to get my finger in...

    I got the same whistling noise from the a pillar. Poking the right spot in the seal was an on off switch too. I picked up some adhesive backed foam/rubber weatherstripping and stuck it under the factory seal to tighten it up. Took a little trial and error but its better now.

    I really wish I could hit overland expo too. I have to put in for vacation in October, for the next year, and totally missed it! Will have to pay attention more next year.

    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    I wanted the standard flares initially too. I actually have a set of used/scratched gray flares in the basement. But the white grew on me and I quit caring about the paint on the flares after the first time out. Lots of rock chips, gouges and scratches on them but they don't rust, so what do...

    What did you do to your Expo Jeep today?

    Shifted like crap from day one. Pops out of fourth gear, grinds into fourth, etc. Bad synchros or something I suppose. Super common apparently. Lots of people having theirs rebuilt with low miles.

    What did you do to your Expo Jeep today?

    Dropped off my 9k mile 2012 for the first transmission rebuild of the six speed trans. Also ordered a synergy drag link to complete the front end overhaul with synergy ball joints, tie rod, track bar, sector shaft brace etc.

    Ursa Minor Pop-Top Jeep JK

    Last weekend we spent a night in the Jeep in the coast range. As usual, we woke up to rain and colder temps, but were very dry and comfortable. I still can't believe how much body heat is retained with two occupants! Everything was covered in dust and pollen the first day so naturally it was...
