new 45 soft top

[whitey45]

I installed the 45 paki soft top today,Fit and finish is decent,and the canvas needs to stretch still,but over all pretty good fit.Not happy with the zipper that broke,cheap quality I guess,it just fell apart in my hand.I dont know what I will do with the sides as far as footman loops go,no room on the gas fill side,and dont really want to put holes in the tub.I have the rear held down with tie downs,and bunjie cords to help stretch the canvas.I dont know what will happen when it gets wet!! Anyway,thanks to Daniel and Sean for providing the soft top and bows,I have wanted to do this for 10 years!

Interesting, looks good. How is the whole thing held in place, snaps? Does it come with bows or are they a custom thing from somewhere other than the soft top vendor?

And what are you using for a rear box?

pretty slick, glad to see everything made it there OK.

I really like your truck tray, have anymore pictures of that?

The bows and top were made by eshan in pakistan,not sure how many were made,but I dont recall seeing another 45 with this setup.The top fits into rails just like a fst 40.

Sean, the tray is from a toyota lite ace foward cab from japan.I got it a few years ago from a guy who imported it from japan.It was 8 ft,I had to shorten it 2ft to fit the truck,but it turned out great and the sides fold down or come off.

I have the same top on my 45 and have had no problems with it at all. But you have to be Really careful with the zippers and stuff.

Looks good. Got mine on a mass group buy a few years ago.

Let me know if you have any questions i might be able to help with.

I also bought the old style doors from him also at the same time. Just seen you already have the doors.

Ahh cool, if I was going to guess I would have said it was off a Suzuki pick up. It looks like a perfect fit, and I like the versatility of it. I may have to rethink my logger box idea.
