I'd like to enclose my 2013 500 Ranger but I have a hard top installed. Can this be installed and still allow me to keep the hard top?

Yes, most definitely. You remove the hard top, which is really easy. Put on the enclosure, and then re-install the top. You have to make a few slits in the material. But it does not seem to hurt it. Please note the front window is hazy, but I plan on removing it and putting in a solid window. For the price you cannot beat it.

No, the hard top must be removed, but there is just a few screws and is easy to remove. The enclosure is worth removing the top.

It's meant to fit on roll cage--- it's a tight fit. The hard top needs to be removed in order to work

Just put one on 93 ranger long bed, fits just like the oem unit I put on it years ago, I dont think the hose is reinforced so it should slide on espcially with a lube on the inner diameter surface.

My 2012 unlimited came with the freedom hard top. Everything needed to install on mine was included.

There are two very strong latches on the inside of the cover which can only be operated when the tailgate is open. It would be very difficult to pry it open with the tailgate closed and locked. That being said, it is still a soft cover which can be cut into, which wouldn't be easy due to the thickness and strength of the material used. I've had two of these covers on two different trucks and the current one I am using is a vast improvement on the last one I owned (which lasted 6+ years with no rips or cuts). The latching mechanism is much more robust and the covering material seems tougher. The installation was also fairly easy. Although not as secure as a hard-top cover, for a soft cover these are quite secure. (I also think these look the best). Hope this helps. If you have any more questions I'll be happy to help.

Yes but you have to have their base frame kit. I like it because I can still remove the front 2 panels on my hard top.

No this will not fit a recoverable. Hard top only. I found out the hard way.

yes ,I put one on my 2014 Ranger ,Its made for the full size Ranger ,NOT the mid size ,and they are awesome ,VERY Scratch resistant and clear ,Its really nice that you can open it and get a nice breeze ! Highly recommended < One note.. A little tricky putting it on as instructions are a little confusing ,but take yer time and it will come out awsome

Yes.... However.... 1) Great care hast to be taken in the location fwd and aft. Not easy and must be exact. Also, the space between sides at rear must be exact. 2) I found the hold down clamps to work poorly on my 2002 Ranger Edge...... finally ended up securing with four 1/4" bolts and wing nuts. 3) Over all, I would recommend this purchase.

Yes I put my net on when I have my hardtop off. It is the greatest! You are supposed to have a tailgate bar to have it snap into,but I use mine without it and it works fine.

No, for some reason it is smaller on the hardtop. I bought this one thinking it would fit but it turned out to be smaller.

No it actually mounts in the same spot as the hardtop. Only difference is this uses a bolt to tighten instead of the lever.

It does not protrude past the hardtop. Google it and look at some pictures.

I would think so. I got the hard top for Christmas this year and installed it (with zip ties because it does not come with any other parts) on my 2011 610 4x4 XC. It fit just fine.

Top is easier to remove than install. Recommend removing it every fall season. Not just because of snow but winter winds will destroy it in short order.

Sure does. When I purchased mine I only had the hard top. Works great with nothing else needed.

It should. The seat in my Ranger is a little shorter, front to back, where the unit goes, than a full sized truck like the Avalanche. My brother has a 2002 (?) Chevy 1500, and it should fit with room to spare. The top is comfortable to rest your arm on.

No, it is a soft top with a double locking seal like a zip-lock bag. I have not had any problems with anyone bothering with mine. If you are wanting to make it a secure area in your truck, I would look for a hard top or roll top. They are more expensive but also more secure.
