Default I need a quick fix to cover my JKU in case os rain

I love to go topless. I need a quick cover for my JKU in case it rains and I don't have someone to help put my top back on. Any suggestions?

Have you looked at the various emergency tops? Some are set up to cover the sides if the doors are off.

I didn't know they existed. Who makes them?

I have the Rain Gear cover for over 2 years now, very happy with it, very thick durable material, so no leaks whatsoever...you can't drive with it on though, if that what you are looking for...

I have the bestop trail cover and it is very nice. I had one for my 2door as well.

I used a giant Sharpie to mark the inside "driver" and "passenger" to aid in installing it quickly during those freak thunderstorms.

I need one that I can drive with but also see out the windows and cover all four doors. If you know of another one. I've done a lot of research on it and no luck. I need like a soft door that can fold up and it in my jeep

I can get the stock top up in a couple minutes. It probably takes a couple minutes or longer to fight with an emergency top and strap it in place especially if it's windy. Practice getting the stock top up quickly. Soft doors are your only option for a light weight solution but I've never seen any that fold up.

I'd assumed he had a hard top since he needed help getting the top back on.
