Good job! We've built 4 of these so far. If you run into any issues I'll try to help. Just a hint to make a few bucks back. The roll bar you'll be getting rid of fits perfect into a willys cj2a. Lol.

Can you post the distance from the back of the front seat to the inside of the rear tail gate please?

 

[Metcalf]

I would like to see that measurement too. From my other thread it should be about 66" with the front seats all the way rearward.

Yep, as soon as I get the front seats back in.

Is there a reason the rear bars angle in so much? Seems like a bit wastful of space? Don't own new stuff so I'm curious.

Yes, at the top, it fits into factory front half of the roll bars, and at the base it uses factory bolt holes, so I believe it's necessary.

As far as taking up space, I don't think it's too crucial as the half hardtop is very close to the back of the front seats.

Bed Floor is down. Moving right along.

Bulkhead & Hardtop are fitted.
Next step is to seal the bulkhead around edges.
