single wall blazer top width?

Does anyone know how wide a single wall top is in the area between the driver & pass door? I want to find out if a single wall top will fit around my cage in the main hoop area.

At the bottom of the top at the back door pillar the top is flush with the sheet metal, at the top it tapers up to about 53"

If that's true then a single wall top is actually more narrow than a doule wall top so that blows my theory out of the water.

Just to be sure I am telling you the right place to measure, I'm looking for a mearurement along the whole length of the window rolled up.

My roll cage is ~58" wide. It is 2" OD tube & it sits ~1/2 inch above where the window is if it's rolled up all the way. I'm trying to figure out if a single wall top would fit around the top.

I will post a pic later. It's too hot in this house. I'm going to the pool.

Here are the pics. Please tell me the top is wider than 58" at this spot.

I don't think it will fit. I measured at the back door pillar where the latch is and at the highest point and that measurement was 53" so I would think it would only get narrower the closer to the windshield you get.

That's not good news, but thanks for taking the measurements for me.
