I don't know if this has already been posted by someone else but I used a Spider Web design bungee cord made for a truck bed to cover the top of my jeep using the roll bar as a frame. I bought it for $30.00, which is way cheaper than cargo nets. I know it won't block sun or rain but it will keep most of those pesky tree branches out of the jeep while we are wheeling. I like the way it looks...

Thanks JKBully! I picked it up at AutoZone a few years ago when I still had a truck and found it laying around in some unpacked boxes. I'm sure you can still get it from them, I see them all the time in pickups.

Went wheelin w/ local club and tested my skids
The tranny skid did it's job, but took a heck of impact from a rock.
THe skid was bent up into the tranny pan, putting a very slight indentation into the pan.
Woulda been a very bad day w/o the skid.
Also my side steps/rails flexed up into my pinch seam

Now the 95* weather and stop and go traffic without a top was another story!
On another note, that spider cargo bungee is a great idea for branches! My kids get wacked in the face all the time! (Something I didn't experience in my KJ!)
