Warn Dual Battery Isolator
Because of increased demands a winch and other accessories place on the DC power supply, many vehicles have multiple batteries — one to start the engine, and another to power accessories. The Warn battery isolator prevents the problem of multi-battery drain. So no matter how drained your accessory battery becomes, it will never drain power from the battery you’re depending on to start your engine. ’86 and newer GM applications require connector kit. (Will not fit ’73-76 Jeep vehicles). For more tech info contact 503-722-1200 or www.warn.com.

Bestop’s See-Through Sunlighter Bikini 50th Anniversary Product
Bestop turned 50 this year and they’re offering a line of 50th Anniversary Commemorative products for a limited time. The latest is a unique translucent fabric in a Bikini® Top that’s like sunscreen for your Jeep. Made from Haartz® semi-transparent water resistant fabric, this top allows defused light through while keeping out wind and weather. Opaque fabric covers the mesh holes and allows just enough light in to keep the cockpit bright and airy, while eliminating glare and eye strain. Perhaps most important, it filters UV rays, so you get the light without the burn. It offers a rugged mesh appearance and “just enough” coverage for a true open air Jeep experience. The Sunlighter fabric is offered in Bestop’s Traditional Bikini style for ’76-86 CJ7s and ’86-91YJ Wranglers, the Strapless Bikini style on ’86-91 and ’92-95 YJ Wranglers, and as a Sunlighter Header Bikini on ’97-02 and ’03-04 TJ Wrangler models. Every Bestop Bikini is manufactured with reinforced edges to eliminate flapping and features industrial-grade webbing and buckles so you can enjoy the freedom it affords, for many years to come.

Tuffy Short Bed Saver Wheel Well Box
This is a fully enclosed, low profile storage box produced from quality aluminum or 16-gauge steel. It provides lockable storage for tow straps, chains, tools, and other objects. It’s shorter than the Truck Bed-Side Storage Box and doesn’t have a wheel well cutout — but it’s a perfect complement. It utilizes unused space around the wheel well, leaving the entire length and usable width of the bed open. Its shorter design allows it to be installed in spaces like the cab side of the truck in most 8’ beds; on the cab or tailgate side of the wheel well in many 6’ beds. It features the patented Pry-Guard II Locking System that combines a pick resistant, ten-tumbler anti-twist push button lock; two point welded striker, and hardened steel latch for security. This box is interchangeable between both truck bedsides. Exterior dimension: 24” L, 7” W, and 19 1/4” H. For more tech info contact 800-348-8339 or www.tuffyproducts.com.

Bestop Pickup Soft Top Alternative
Traditional truck pickup bed shells are hard, heavy and a pain when you need to haul larger cargo. This new Soft Top is lightweight, simple to install, and designed to quickly collapse for carrying oversized items in the bed. It includes frame and fabric top, has clear front window and tinted side and rear windows and weighs about 75 pounds. The black powder-coated frame assembly attaches securely to the top bed rail with no-drill clamps. Innovative frame assembly collapses the bows and top forward to the bed front, allowing oversized items to be loaded without completely removing the Top. Their patented belt-rail attachment system lets you open the tailgate without unfastening the Top, which is made from durable 18-ounce Haartz stretch-and-set fabric stitched with marine-grade T-135 industrial strength thread. This provides superior stain and mildew resistance and is tough and form fitting. Tinted side and rear windows can be removed, or rolled up for easy bed access. Optional side and rear mesh windows are available for added ventilation. When you need to carry longer items, Bestop offers an optional Pickup Top Rack for carrying cargo up to 350 pounds. The Rack attaches to the frame and stays in place when collapsing the bows. Optional Universal Rack Trays can be mounted on the Top Rack for even more utility.
