Overview
The Bestop Windjammer in Black Denim (part number 80030-15) is a cabin enclosure for the 1997–2002 Jeep Wrangler (TJ). It closes off the rear of the vehicle to keep occupants warm and dry, and it fits the SE, Sahara, Sport and X trims.
The premium fabric holds its shape in any temperature, resists mildew and UV fading, and is stitched with high strength thread at stress points. The clear vinyl window provides rear visibility, and the lower cut-out gives access to the rear cargo area.
Key features
- Black denim exterior fabric
- Clear vinyl window for rear visibility
- Lower cut-out for rear cargo access
- Premium fabric resists mildew and UV fading
- High strength thread at stress points
- Lower edge held by metal channel hardware
Fitting to a TJ soft top
Wrangler TJ soft tops age in ways that affect how an enclosure fits. Sun and heat can stretch the top and change the line of the rear frame, so check that the top is taut before attaching anything. A rear enclosure fitted to a loose or sagging top will flap in wind and wear faster at the mounts.
Consider the cargo area when you choose a setup. The lower cut-out allows access to the rear, but the channel and floor riser must be solid to hold the bottom edge. Inspect the floor for soft spots or rust near the riser before mounting.
- Make sure the soft top is taut before attaching
- Check the floor riser for rust or soft spots
- Re-check the mounting screws after the first few drives
