fitting a hard top to a Land rover series 2a

Post by andy3542 »

iv got a SWB 2a which is currently set up for a canvas soft top. how hard is it to fit a single cab hard top? can you just drop it on and bolt it?

cheers

Make sure you get the rear mount rail that goes accross the rear. I had to make one using angle iron when I changed mine from full hard top to truck cab.

I think the rear wall is further back on the 109s, thats why you need that rail.
