From Mario a page back...

"We unfortunately had some difficulties with shrinkage of the top post molding and the debut will be delayed a few weeks while we adjust the tooling. We are bummed not to have it ready at OVX. When it is completed though, it will be well worth waiting for. We'll have more to report on soon."

Don't worry, they will get it right. I'm on the list now.

As said, the JK Topper was not at the Overland Expo as AT has to tweak the mold some more to find the right compensation for the shrinkage occurring when plastic/fiberglass cures. But AT had to regular FlipPacs there;this was the first time I actually I got to see and touch one and I'm really impressed. They are very well made, brackets look beefy, the tent material feels very sturdy. I'm convinced that the Topper will be an excellent product.

I'm trying to tell myself that I don't need one, but I'm not sure that I'm listening :elkgrin:

Thanks for the heads up guys. Not sure how I missed that previous post about the shrinkage issue. Really looking forward to this product as well and am excited to see pictures of the production product.

Yea, I was really hoping it was going to make a showing. It was the ONLY item the wife and I were excited to see as it could possible make some very big changes for us. Guess a trip to Prescott will be in order....

I have too much money in my LJ to sell it and get a JK.

We had some issues with the product and have to do some re-working of the mold. As you all know we are anal about these things :sombrero:
