New THC top. I have contracted with a local marine products manufacturer to make a top for me. Using 20oz Cotton Duck Canvas in a variety of colors. Black, Gray, Tan, and OD Green. There will be a variety of options available for you to customize. $930 +shipping. Shipping is usually around 30-40 shipped in the lower 48. Price doesn't include the hardware kit. It's $80 shipped. (See below pics for the hardware kit specs)

Soft Top Specs:

  • 20oz Cotton Duck Canvas in Black, Tan, OD Green and Gray.
  • Sumbrella Edging
  • 1" Nylon Straps that are sewn to a reinforced layer for the hold down straps
  • Polyester welded to PVC core for the windshield, and door channels. This is 10 times stronger than canvas over rope core.
  • Sewn together with 100% PTFE (PolyTetraFlouroEthylene) fiber. This thread will not break due to exposure to sunlight, weather or water for the life of the fabric sewn.
  • #10 YKK zippers. Overkill for this soft tops but I wanted a big zipper.
  • Reinforced windshield corners
  • Crystal Clear 40 gauge vinyl window material. Super thick and made to last. In clear or light smoke.
  • Available in two window configurations. OEM 7 window and Trollhole style. I designed the Trollhole style several years ago with single side windows instead of the two small windows as well the windows are the same length as the windshield and door windows. (I like this style especially on a lifted cruiser where seeing out the rear windows is import so you can see the vehicles beside you and behind you)
  • 2 week turnaround to shipping on most orders. Shipped out of Greenville, SC.
  • International shipping available.

Love it! I first purchased one in the black PVC material but I wanted something more vintage looking. I sold it and got one in tan canvas and it looks terrific. Marshall is a solid dude and the craftsmanship is well done.
 
@antFJ , yeah I found that on my search. I'm not sure now on factory top. When I take the hard top off now, I love the sun on me and folding the windshield down. Can't do that with the oem top. I emailed them to see if they make a folding version.
 
Has anyone ever modified their oem soft tops to fold down? I love the look of the oem soft top, but when I'm wheeling I like the windshield down and sun on me.

So @Trollhole 's company got back to me. They do not offer a fold down version. I have seen people who rolled their OEM tops up somehow. Does anyone have any pictures? Did they have to modify it at all? I like the look of the OEM, but I want to be able to feel the sun on me and when I'm wheeling, put the windscreen down. Trollhole's look's great otherwise.
 
Only way to do that is to just take the top off. You can roll up the windows around back but that's about it. What you want is a Jeep top. That means the whole bow system would have to be redesigned. I've thought about it in the past but with so many cruisers going back to stock and wanting a stock top it just isn't worth the investment. We are talking 10's of thousands of dollars.
