Do any of the vendors offer a windstopper for early broncos? I have a bikini top and would like to keep wind and rain off me

Thinking about making my own wind blockers for my kids. They love riding in the bronco until I go faster than 45. Then they get cold :(

That's what sweatshirts are for. My girls loved riding in back when they were young. They did scream a bit going thru the mud pits.

Good job training them when they are young SteveL !! lol Did they same to my kids... :)

I had a windscreen built for the back of my custom 1/2 cab. Sides are longer than stock, there is no back but that's where the windscreen is. Working great for 10 yrs plus.

Yeah, we put them on I think its just the volume of wind that they don't like so much. I was thinking of building a C-130 style cargo net for the back so they can still see out but it blocks some of the wind.

That looks nice and can be removable. We'll just finish installing the rack and bed cover from 4Wheelonline this week and we'll start working on the Bronco. Will consider that design.

I used a late model *eep for mine via amazon. My interior has been stripped down to metal awaiting epoxy primer, so no pics. It does fit but a little long on the bottom and has an opening in between the seats so I can reach my refreshment cooler. It was: Pavement Ends by Bestop 41424-35 Black Diamond Cab Curtain for 2007-2018 Wrangler JK 2-Door.

The securing straps were off the mark on the rollbar, but I made it work.

In my experience running a windscreen in my 1/2 cab for 8+ yrs that IF the windscreen sides arent tight to the cab then a TON of air will come around the sides and UNDER neath it if not anchored to the floor & seats.

All I ran for a top for 10 or 12 years was WH windstopper and a bikini top. It worked fine for me here in N. California.

Same here. From 1999 to 2012 nothing but bikini top year round... I live where we routinely get 0 def F winters with lots of snow. Only used my tube doors for hunting in the snow.

DD too... just gotta be tough! That's what hats and coats are for... lol I'll tell ya... heated seats in my Bronco for the winter are killer... ;)
