xj build up advice

Still new to this xj thing and had not thought about the top helping with rigidity ( IS THAT A WORD?) so probably a good idea to forget about the removable top. I like the idea of a soft top, but i destroyed a lot of soft tops on my tj and wouldnt want to buy custom tops to destroy.

My WIFE likes the looks of the chop back with spare mount in back..That may be my only choice lol.
 
I would go exo. I had an internal in my '93, did a very soft flop on the top and that was the end of the windshield. Ended up hating the POS and parted it out. And never, ever, ever run a roof rack. Stupid :gay: and will do more damage.
Cut the top, tie the cage in and it will add rigidity.
I'm moving in a few weeks and my home PC is packed up. Unfortunately, here's the best pics I have of the cage after it was cut out (these might be the only pics I have) and one really bad one when it was in.

Thanks for the pics. , and info. This is one hard decision to make.The windsheild is a big worry. Also the 8 side windows and the back window, and the.........................aw @#^#!! this is crazy, I wished i had my tj back! It was done.
My mind changes every 10 min. Gotta do something though, i need to go wheeling!:driver:
 
yes, true. But i really need to do the safe thing with my little girl riding. So some sort of cage is in the near future.
