Reviews for QuadraTop Premium Sailcloth Replacement Soft Top in Black Diamond for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK 2 Door
I bought this top as a replacement for a 2010 factory top. Overall, the quality of the top is very good. The only issue is that the drivers side quarter window area is not as tight as the passengers side. I tried to adjust several times but it still did not tighten up. The window does fit but it looks a little lose right behind the drivers door. I have no leaks and wind noise is the same as the factory top. I would recommend this top as a slightly cheaper alternative to the bestop.
Good economical alternative to a Mopar top. In warm weather, the top is noisy at highway speed, however in colder weather it shrinks enough to quiet it down. Material is thinner than factory original but this makes it easier to put up and down.
Zippers work well and I have had no leaking issues.
An overall good replacement top. Did have issues with the rear windows teeth not wanting to line up all the time, it has seemed to fixed its self.
Great product
The top looks great but I just couldn't install by myself. Had to take it into a shop and they charged $325.00 to install. Make sure you have help.
I installed this top about a month ago, and right out of the box the top seemed to have used really good quality material. Installation of the top and the way the top fit on the 2007 2 door Wrangler was great. It needed to be stretched out a little to get the front flap bracket in place.
The only issue that I have had is the rear window can be quite difficult to zip back on if removed. The zipper in the top right corner gets really tight and can make it interesting when reinstalling the window. That's the only down side.
I have been able had the top down multiple times now, and it is a breeze to quickly pull the top down.
Other than the zipper issue in the rear, this has been a great $$$ saving purchase.
The top is functional. However, nowhere do they mention or depict the metal 'quadratec' badge affixed to the fabric of one of the side windows. I purposely avoid putting branded items on my vehicles and, unfortunately, I only noticed the badge after having installed the rest of the top, otherwise I would have returned it. The badge is riveted on so it cannot be removed without leaving two holes in the fabric. I'm not happy about this.
I did not realize when I bought this that for the years '07-'09 a conversion kit would be included that converts what I had to the newer cable system with the rain channel above the driver and passenger doors. I kept it since it was already here in front of me, but this would have been a deal killer, as I liked the way the original sealed above the driver/passenger doors.
The back window is really wrinkled and loose, not tight at all. Perhaps this was purposeful so that the window would be easier to zip in and out, but it will never look like the photo in the advertisement.
All of the other features seem to be as expected and I plan to use this one for about 5 years until it's time to replace it again.
Bought this last fall and it was an easy install with a buddy, word of advice check your stay pad kit (straps that connect to soft top frame) as mine were dry rotted and snapped, you can order them through quadratec but need a rivet gun to install. Soft top quality seemed good but it seems a little louder than OEM while driving. Zipper pull came off in my hand when putting the back window in this spring after only having the top off about 3 times and only having it installed for less than a year. Quadratec was quick with a replacement but they do not sell the windows only so they shipped me a whole new top under warranty; great service but makes me nervous what may happen after warranty is expired as this never happened with OEM in the 6 years I had the original top.
Don’t expect this top to function long term like OEM. I replaced a 10year old OEM top with this product only because the OEM was fading. After 1 year of very light use(only took the top down a total of 5 times if that) ALL the zippers have started losing teeth. It’s to the point now where I can’t unzip any windows in fear that they won’t go back in. I’m on year 2 of owning this top and am looking to replace it already. Save your money. Go with a Name Brand.
