i have a 1985 jeep cj7 just wondering where to find some info on it like whats interchangable between this and a wrangler i know it has a 304 v8 trying to buy a top not a lot of used cj top will a wrangler top work
 
CJ-7 and YJ tops are almost identical. The only difference is how they mate up with the CJ flodown tailgate or YJ swingaway. I'm not exaclty sure how softop hardware is different, but there are different liftgates on hardtops. The CJ hardtop liftgate sits on top of the CJ tailgate; The YJ hardtop liftgate extends lower, and the YJ rear door closes on top of the liftgate. They are different because the YJ spare mounts on the rear door, but the CJ has a separate swing-away tire carrier.
 
Check the winston-salem Craig's list ads. I thought I saw a hard top(no doors) for $200 unsure of condition.
 
I have a used CJ top. It's the bestop supertop with 2 piece doors. It's black and not perfect but it is in pretty good shape. I will sell it for $200. PM me if you are interested.
 
According to the booklet that came with my Bestop Supertop, the soft top for a YJ will indeed fit a CJ-7.
