I was wondering if anyone has ever tried to make a set of doors or a hard top. I've seen a top that a machine shop made for a local military 6x6 and it looked and fit pretty good.

Well I think I might try making a plywood top within the next couple of weeks. I'd rather have a full top but I don't know how I'd fit the rounded corners on the back. Also I'll probably make a frame out of channel iron, I don't really want to spend a fortune, otherwise I'd try and buy a factory one. I might just make a halfcab since I really just want it for the winter. I'll keep my doors, I'm not going to mess with making new ones. I'll post some pictures when I get it done.

The idea of using the 1x1s and glue is a better idea than using a steel frame. I think too I'll just square the back off at the corners and then add a curved piece on the inside to fill in the space. I'm not really sure about the 1" overhang because I'm still wanting to use my soft doors. Thanks for the input.
