710 top cost $$$

Post by tokarev »

Might have the chance to buy a 710 on the cheap. The truck needs a new top from the pic I have seen. Whats the going rate?

The Tuffriver tops are about $3300+, but they are the best out there, so I'm told.

It was somewhat less $ for my 712, and had a lot of custom changes made to fit the roll cage.

It makes no sence to me that the tops cost less for a vehicle that is 2 ft longer and has twice as many windows as the 710...its almost like charging less for the fat guys pants and giving the skinny guy a hosing..whats up with that??? :evil:

Ray at Tuff River offers a choice of fabrics that vary in price. You can't just compare what one person paid with another because there are a few factors that can affect the cost.

I bought a front top from him that included the cab divider canvas and the "elephant" ears and I am very happy with it. Much quieter in the cab and cooler or warmer depending on the season thanks to the insulation in the top. The workmanship and fit are excellent.

I was quoting a price given to me for a material I requested. Of course price varies. I also requested a top at a particularly busy time for them and the waiting time was quite long. Each person will have to get their own quote.
