TJ Soft Top Jipper
« on: May 30, 2020, 05:02:25 PM »
Hello. I have a 2001 TJ Sport. Recently, the zipper on my back window of my son top failed and I believe that it needs to be replaced. Does anyone know a place in Calgary or nearby that could replace the zipper at a decent price? I'm unemployed because of Covid but I love my Jeep and want to get it fixed. I'm sure with the number of Jeep owners out thee that this must happen a lot? Thanks for any help or suggestions.

I think Canvasmart will fix it, but I'm not 100% sure.
if we were smart with our money we wouldn't own Jeeps.

Not sure on cost to repair but often people are selling older used soft tops that are in rough shape but come with decent windows.

I actually took it over to Alberta Tent and Awning and he showed me a trick with the zipper so that I could use it for the time being. They also quoted me $10 per foot to replace the zipper. I thought that is a great price.

Had the rear window zipper on my TJ soft top fixed. Had it done at Calgary Tent and Awning. Awesome people and great job on fixing the zipper. Thanks
