It all depends exactly what you're trying to achieve.
Keeping the cab and having a standard tilt on the back keeps you warmer in the winter and your interior more secure from theft with a seperate load area.
If you want top down cabrio fun in the summer then lose the truck cab and get a full length tilt, although it'll be draughty in the winter and thieves will soon put a stanley knife through the canvas to get at your belongings.
Catch 22 situation really
they come off really easy, just undo the m6 bolts above windscreen and then undo the back corners and away you go but remember that your seatbelt mounts are on the cab, 30 mins work at most. oh and welcome.Hey, I was pondering that issue, was thinking at least for now to keep can, I think by the time I've saved for a full length it's going to be winter (brr)
I was erring towards a temporary 3/4.
Are the cabs very tricky to dismantle?
tidy late model truck cab roofs fetch good money , espescially if the head linings in good nick, maybe flog it and go get your hoops and canvass the same day.Managed to shift the ifor last week so soft top fund has been created I'm exercising patience (badly) stamps foot..fidgets

As the other guys have said, just a bit of time with the spanners plus an extra pair of hands to lift it all away, good point made about the upper seatbelt mounts though as they'll lift away with the cab.
Then you gotta make sure you tell your insurance company that you've changed the spec of the vehicle......why not stick with the cab for now, no wet ears from wolfie licking them and your seats'll stay cleaner
is there any other way?
Good point, he's got hooch style drool and I've just re upholstered the drivers seat as previous owners terrier got bored and chewed well..everything in sight
Ok 3/4 it is for this year, any good recommended rubber load matting?
glad it's not just me who sticks his tounge out when cogitatin'Absolutely not, I'll be cross legged, frowning, tongue chewing and cursing in no particular order without a doubt
