    I am looking at putting a bikini top on my CJ6. I don't really see anything for sale. I tried measuring my CJ5 top and it is too short.

    Does anyone know if the later bikini tops for a CJ7, YJ or TJ might be longer and reach my roll bar?

    Does anyone have the measurement on any of these models from the top of the windshield to the centerline of the stock roll bar?

    Thanks.

    Moved to the appropriate section, as this isn't stock restoration.

    I've read that a Wrangler Unlimited (year 2000 range) bikini is a good fit
    I took two used cj bikini tops and sewed them together with tie downs in the middle to keep the flapping down.....works great

    I used a CJ7 top for several years and it covered the front part of the cab fine. Just add a couple of footman loops to the back corners to tighten everything down.
