Tonyp5143 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Hey guys, I am going to refinish the topper for my 1985 Gen 2 Brat. It is white and I really do not like the white topper on my silver Brat. I have already stripped and refinished the Jackmans and painted them low gloss black, which I think looks MUCH better on my Brat. Currently when the topper is on my Brat it touches the paint in several areas. So, I am sure at one time there must have been some weatherstripping on the topper to give it a little extra clearance. What are you guys using? Any suggestions? Thanks, Tony P Unionville, NC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skishop69 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Go to JC Whitney and look through their Jeep and 4wd section for body parts. I don't remember which one it is, but you'll want the kind that would slip over a pinch weld, like door weather stripping. You then install the groove of the stripping over the edge of the topper with the seal facing in. Voila! I would also get some mylar and put it on the body where the seal contacts it or it will wear the paint..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
