From Red Neck top to Steel Top

[Leejohn]

Back in June 2010 I made a rag top just to see if I would like one. Well I did and I made one.
You can see how the legs are made and how I hooked them to the tractor. Also the inside of the top.
It bolts on and if I sell the tractor I can just unbolt and put the oem rop back on.
I have 4 bolts to put on the front uprights and a cross bar goes between them just above the hood.
All the tubeing for the back, front and uprights are 1/4" wall. The 1 X 2 in the top is 3/16" wall. Top is 3/16" flat stock. The mounts at the bottom is 1/2" and 5/8".
It is heavy, so heavy I just might be able to unload my rear tires.

My neighbor has a GEO (I think) hood on his and it looks actually pretty good he mounted it to the roll bar just like normal and if I'm not mistaken it is Aluminum too. junk yard find for 25 bucks or so at pick-a-part.

If you sell and I buy I get the top, you can keep the oem. Excellent work.
