40 series hardtop roof dimensions

[crazybushman]

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knows what the dimensions of a 1982 40 series roof width from gutter to gutter and how far from the back does it start to taper? I'm looking at purchasing a roof rack and roof top tent from a Defender 110, I'm out of the country for the next 9 days but need to make a decision on the rack before I return. Thanks!!

I've got a hardtop for my '66 if that helps. i'm going over to see it today and could give you those measurements as a guide until someone else pipes up.

75 fj40

~63" wide and ~46" for the taper.

Thanks for the help! Any idea what the hardtop can take for weight?

Cheers!

not much on the fiberglass but probably several hunderd pounds, depending on how you attach to the rain gutter.
