Reviews for Bestop Supertop NX Soft Top with Tinted Windows without Upper Doors for 97-06 Jeep Wrangler TJ

Ordered this top on 3/18/2019 received on 3/26/2019. Top was packed really well, everything was included. Put the Bows together that night, no problems. Took my old Outland supertop and hardware off in about 2 hrs on next day. Installed this top in about 3 1/2 hours with a little support from my wife. Had a sunny day with temps around 77 degrees. I didn't use a drill motor, I did it by hand with Phillips screwdriver because drill motors tend to strip out screws. The self tapping #8's were tough, but a little blast with Balistol took care of that. Fitment was tight, but with a few adjustment of taking Header loose and the back corners, the window strips rolled into the doors OK. The strap to the Rear Bow screws was tough, I recommend lubricating them as they are self tapping. Top fits like a glove, and we will be seeing how it holds up. All in All, Great Top

I ordered this top to replace the tired factory soft top on my 2006 TJ. I have experience with Supertop NX as I've had one on my JKU since 2009 with no problems at all. (10 years and still like new!) Kit comes with ALL the hardware and/or surrounds necessary. Love the quick disconnect on the bows to remove the top completely as well as the ability to open up over the front seats and still have the rest of the top up. Great product, great finish, great fit!

Am pleased with the quality of the material. Installation was not hard at all. Great investment

Very nice top I had the original super top not super top nx and the top/door jams and windshield latches are much better I installed in October , I was gonna try to make it through the winter with my original top but it was too far gone, install took 5 hours but I took my time also watched a lot of YouTube videos because the instructions weren’t that good , overall it’s just as good as a factory top and super dry especially with the new doors jams , you get what you pay for very nice , also the fold back feature is great

Based on some of the reviews, I was a little hesitant to purchase this. It is an expensive top (compared to others) and so many people have complained about installation I was quite nervous. However, I watched countless installation videos and researched other similar products .. eventually deciding to take a chance that the cost would be worth the quality ... and that I had watched enough videos to not mess up the installation.

Installation was fairly easy and we hit the 3 hour installation time almost exactly. The instructions could have been a little better, but like I say.. I watched a lot of installation videos so I knew just to take my time and not force anything. The paperwork recommends installing at 72 degrees or higher... so specific .. and sure enough, it was exactly 71 degrees outside when I attempted the installation. I risked it anyway. When it was time to start stretching the canvas into place, I turned on the engine and cranked the heater to full, blasting for a good 10 minutes. Even then it was a tight fit... but eventually my persistence paid off.

As far as the product itself, the quality is good and looks like a significant upgrade to my 15 year old grimy soft top. The interior looks better and unlike my old one, this one doesn't leak. The door seal is significantly better with the upgraded door jams and overall it just feels a lot better.

I like the sun-rider style flip-up front, I just really wish it opened up twice as much.. it's only about a foot wide opening and I was really hoping it would fold back the entire overhead of passenger and driver. And unfortunately, you have to fold it carefully or it will sag (that is, you can't pop it open when at a stop light).

I have yet to try folding down the entire canvas or taking it off completely. I normally spend most of the summer with the top completely removed.. but now that it is late September, that might not be something I attempt until next summer.

Now that it has been a few weeks, it is definitely not as tight as it was initially, but still feels snug. It was so difficult to lock the header down the first time... but now it locks in fairly easily.

Overall, I am happy with the purchase. I didn't want to spend close to a grand on a new top, but now that the money has been spent I have no regrets.

Great soft top! I have a 97 TJ Sahara model with a poison spyder trail cage and rear spreader bar installed. The top installed perfectly and folds up and down with no modifications needed to clear the custom roll cage. As other users have said the instructions were not the most helpful but youtube helped. This kit included everything that was needed as I only had a hardtop before.

Love the windows. almost like looking out the back with the hardtop on. Light years ahead of the factory top that came on my 1999 sport.

Fantastic Soft top. Thick, tough, durable top,with strong hardware. Easy to install.

Works great, looks great, no leaks. Some flapping against the side support bars, but it's a soft top, what can you do. Doesn't fold down as well or look as clean tucked away as I had hoped, but still good.

The quality of this top is excellent. The instructions and online videos on how to install....not so much. If you remember anything from this review...let it be this: Connect the windshield header FIRST, before you start futzing and stretching the material. It also helps to remember to attach the support bar to the hole next to the roll bar upright bracket, of the 3 holes there. Forget about being able to install this top in two hours. 4 is more like it. 6 is what it took me. As a matter of fact...forget all the cursing and sore hands and arms that I went through, and have it installed at a off-road shop.
