    Nice, I'm 5'8", so won't need much more room than you.

    Also, I had the same hard top, I miss that thing :)

    I'm digging this story. Nothing crazy just cruising.

    I've also got the top. My in-laws have an aluminum top that is much lighter. On ours It's a good 3 man lift for the shell and two people for each door until you get the process down so it's not something you want to do frequently. Hard tops are great in town and the open rear hatch let's it breath well. I'ld take it off only for a trail ride that might damage the cab.

    I think you need to keep an eye out for a old roof rack.
    Don't load it much more than a bike or two.
