I have tossed the idea of those soft top ones or like what EdgeThis did on hi Zebra with cutting holes. I like my top how it is BUT i need new hardware cause i only got 4 of those small bolts holding it down. Once i get some straight sunshine here i planned to pull the top off and replace all the hardware. Then i will feel a lot better about that situation. I just have to get the hardware, i know JBG has them but their like $50+ dollars. I have tried looking around the junkyard but all the older broncos if there was any have had the bolts robbed from it. I figure i will just but a whole new set and go from there.

Dylan I will stop this weekend and see what the old boys plan is with the sister ship like yours that is in town. It's Identical right down to the paint and looks good. But hasn't moved in 7 years.

I can look there, whats NPD? I havne't looked much for them and if need be i could take one bolt and clip down to my local Fastenal bolt store which is a few blocks away and buy them. That might be easier but it would take longer unless i can get a picture or some measurements or something i could use to ask the guy about and see if he has them.

I know JBG has the kit, but it is as expensive as buying it from the ford dealership... I was planning on pulling one or two bolts i have already and going to Fastenal right down the street and see if they had the bolts and matching clips. Problem is since i only have 4 of the bolts for the bottom 6 they are the short ones. I would need one long and one short and on to of that only 4 of those 6 holes are lining up.. I am going to have to wait till i can remove the top to see whats going on.

My camera is MIA. And I just happen to know who sold it for her drug habit. I don't have any way to patch my cell into the computer. I need to learn how to email or blue tooth or what ever from one to the other I guess.

Spank? Slap the b**ch...
There is a way you can email the pictures from your cell to your email but it depends on your cell phone provider and if you are able to send pictures through text.

I know the bluetooth thing works cus the bi--h that got my camera just downloaded all the songs she had on this phone when I let her use it for a week. Cost over $300.00 that month. Go figure.

Haha. Here is what i was talking about
AT&T Wireless-
I don't know if it allows sending of pictures buy you should try it. I use it with t-mobile and it really makes things easy, i can be at the junkyard and send it from there and have them in my email when i get home.

Yes Dylan ya sent pics to me when in the yard the other day.
Well I guess I had the missing camera thing all wrong. I mentioned it to my oldest son after school that it was missing and low and behold he knew right where it was but didn't put it there. Funny how things like that can move around on there own. So I got the camera back. Now what the heck was I supposed to take a pic of anyway?
