Hi everyone! Srdjan here from Chile, I’d like to know if any of you have ever extended a YJ hardtop—or know how to do it, or know someone who has—to make it fit a CJ8 Scrambler? Any help would be extremely useful.
Thanks a lot in advance!
 
I know it has been done. I have seen a few nice, and a few horrible jobs. You would want to use an earlier YJ top(or at least the back top if melding 2 together) with a "T" handle on the hatch like a CJ7 top. Later YJ's use the tailgate to keep the hatch closed.
 
I'm actually in the process to figure out how to do it, but my initial plan is to cut my 1987 hard top, just in the middle of the side windows, and then build the missing part with the propper plastic and fiberglass. So I'll keep the rear hatch functional.
