I just bought a 99 Sahara with a hardtop. I haven't taken delivery yet but already started shopping. I have a question regarding a soft top. Will my or should my Jeep have the OEM frame for a soft top? It's starting to warm up here in NC and I'm looking forward to going topless.

If the Jeep was originally sold with dual tops, it might.
There are great options for soft tops, sold with and without frames.
New ones from Bestop are great, and other makers sell them too.
Check out Quadratec.com for ideas.
You might find a deal on Craigslist too.

Weaverville is a beautiful spot!

Welcome! I'm new here too!
 
Welcome to the forum. Like @Duke-TJ stated, if it came with one then you should have the needed pieces. If not, you can buy and entire top from something like a Craigslist or an entirely new top from Bestop. Plan to spend 300-1000 depending on which way to go. The other option is a bikini top or a mesh top like the Alienshade. There are lots of options out there and most seem to have more than one, depending on weather.

Personally I run a Pavement Ends frame less top for cold weather, and either a Smittybilt bikini top or Alienshade mesh top for warm weather.
