Double wall top
I was ready to take this to the dump but thought I would post it first to see if anyone nearby has any use for it. When I went to remove it from my Blazer I had to cut into the interior side to get a wrench on the nuts inside the top because they were spinning when I tried to remove the bolts. Also the nuts inside the top where the liftgate hardware attaches are all shot. I have the liftgate but no hardware for it. This is free to anyone who wants to come and get it. I live in southwest Colorado. Thanks.

Re: Double wall top
Can't beat free. Pretty common for the nuts to spin. Even my single wall has it in the front.

Re: Double wall top
If the glass is softray someone will buy it, if you want to ship it. Just cut it out with a razor knife.

Re: Double wall top
Thanks for the input. dirish I wish you were closer too. Hate to cut it up. Thanks for the suggestion Dwayne. I hadn't thought about the glass. I'll look to see if it is softray.

Re: Double wall top
Repairing the nuts is no big deal. We just did some.
Cut the area around the nut, and install a stainless nut in place of the old one. We use a two part epoxy called Fusor to fill the area around the nut, sometimes embedding some fiberglass mat into it. Coat a bolt with grease so the epoxy won't stick to it, and insert it into the nut to hold it place until the Fusor cures.
