Hard Top missing parts

[johns_bronco]

I borrowed this pic, but it does have a shot of what i'm looking for. The corner part that is hanging down. I suppose this bolts down for extra security for the top, and to support the lift gate latches.

Where can I find these? I really would like to find either new or used. Any suggestion greatly appreciated.

Often times them posts become misaligned and/or rusted on..regardless they're sure a pain when taking the top off or on. A lot of guys just cut them off flush, or totally remove them.

Use good bolts that attach the top to the bed and you're set!

No one reproduces them you will have to buy a good used set. Post up in the wanted section you might get lucky some guys just throw them away which is sad because they do add a lot of strength to the top in the back. Someone swapping over to a soft top might be will to sell.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Now that I know these are not available aftermarket I will start searching elsewhere and I've contacted DelcoNick as a starting point. Thanks!!

What he said..also here is good reading on one member's fix. Seems like they cause more problems than they fix. I'll do without them once I install my top.

Like the way square tubing was used to reinforce the top. I will be doing is as soon as I'm there in my build.
