Ragtop

Can-Back Soft Top
Can-Back offers tops for so many pickups and SUVs that it's impossible to list them all in the space we have here. Plus, if you can't find your application, Can-Back will custom-build one for your vehicle or modify an existing kit to fit. For example, if you've bobbed your 4Runner, Can-Back will build a shorter kit for you.

Can-Back offers both Pachyderm (steel frame) and Can-Back (stainless steel frame) tops in a number of fabric colors with or without side or rear windows.

We ordered a stainless Can-Back with black fabric and side and rear windows.The kit arrived packaged like it was about to be air-dropped into a war zone. High-quality, to say the least. The instructions are super-easy to follow and include pictures, so you can't goof it up. The Toyota kit is a total bolt-on and only took about 25 minutes once the old top was removed.

We've found ours to be waterproof even in really heavy rains, easy to take on and off, and surprisingly quiet on the highway. Even at 80 mph, it doesn't flap with the sides up or down. The sides and back roll up quickly, which is really nice for trail driving or reaching in from the side to get at things in the back. Anyone want to buy an '85 4Runner hardtop?

Seats
Our factory buckets were ripped and rotted with worn springs that offered absolutely no support. Topless wheeling means an increased chance of getting interior components wet, so we needed to either cover our factory seats to keep the foam from getting wet and rotting further, or replace them. After looking into what it would cost to rebuild and recover our extremely uncomfortable factory units, we happily settled on a pair of replacement seats from Corbeau.

Corbeau has a wide variety of seats ranging from simple to extravagant. We chose a pair of Sport Seats covered in weather-friendly black vinyl. The Sport Seats recline all the way back and have a flip-forward feature on both the passenger and driver seats. The injection-molded foam felt really stiff at first (we'll call it European-sporty) but the seats broke in a bit after a few hundred miles.

The nicest part is that Corbeau offers one of the best selections of installation brackets we've seen. Ours mounted right up to the holes for the factory bench seat (Toyotas have both bolt patterns in the floor) and have adjustment sliders for both driver and passenger.
