Mine is actually stronger now than Before. I can jump up and down on the Roof along the checker plate (I weigh 215 Lbs). My intention when capping the cut in was to build it as strong (Or stronger) than a roll bar.

Mine is pretty stiff too because i added bracing along the back plus that window frame has several layers to it. 4Hummer, i saw your truck a long time ago when it was red with the toyota logo on it. I think that is where i got the inspiration to do it. So its your falt and you owe me a slightly dented 2nd gen LOL.

Hey, is that a CanBack rear cover or a custom job? I like it! Actually I love the whole truck, very nice all-weather setup.
