Cuttin the roof off

i know mine seems to flex alot with the top off. . so much so that i dont take the top off anymore and no flex with top installed that i knotice. i hear that installing strut tower bars can help with flex issues, anyone else use strut bars? or have another flex fix cure? do upgraded swaybars help?

also im not a bodyman but ive watched alot in the field. id look for a wrecked car with a good top and cut it out at the windshield post and just past the back of the top so you have the screw inserts and weld it into yours so you have the targa option. just as much work or more but you can still put the top back in for hurricane season and security.

im thinking about getting another targa top to fab in a sun roof or moon roof into the spare top..

i like how toyo did these targas for removal and reinstall. pretty slick, and mine doesnt leak, pretty fart smellers
