Fiberglass Canopies for the John Deere Gator TX and ProGator: TracTop GT1 and PRO1
The work Gators get the sun all day: the John Deere Gator TX, TS, TH, and TE hauling around the property, and the ProGator 2020A and 2030A running fairways and sports turf from dawn on. Thunderbird's TracTop line builds a molded fiberglass canopy for each, finished in Deere green, and BigGreenParts stocks both.
TracTop GT1 for Gator TX, TS, TH, TE
The GT1 (part TA-GT1MK) fits the traditional utility Gators, 2005 to current: the Gator TX 4x2, TX Turf, TS, TH 6x4, and TE electric. The molded fiberglass shell mounts over the operator station and holds its shape and color season after season, where a fabric top fades and sags. At $779.99, it is the one-time shade purchase for a machine that works outside every day.
Running open all winter? Add the polycarbonate windshield kit (TA-GTW07, $349.99), which mounts to the GT1 canopy and closes off the front of the station. Canopy plus windshield turns a TX or TH into a three-season machine for around $1,130.
TracTop PRO1 for ProGator 2020A and 2030A
Golf and sports turf crews run the ProGator 2020A and 2030A through the hottest hours of the day, often with a topdresser or sprayer on the back. The PRO1 (part TA-PRO1MK) is molded specifically for the ProGator's wider operator station and ROPS, so it fits like factory equipment rather than an adapted universal. At $794.99 it is a fraction of the cost of the OEM cab option, and it keeps the open-air visibility spray techs want.
Why Fiberglass Over Fabric or Steel
Fiberglass does not rust, does not soak up heat like steel, and does not tear on the first low branch. The molded shape sheds rain to the sides instead of pooling, and the finish is designed to hold its gloss through years of UV. Both canopies install with hand tools.
Use Cases
Grounds crews at schools and municipalities running Gator TX fleets. Golf course superintendents putting PRO1 canopies across the ProGator fleet before summer. Farms where the TH 6x4 is the daily feed truck. Anywhere OSHA-adjacent sun exposure policies are starting to apply to outdoor staff.
Price and Availability
Both canopies are in stock in Deere green: the GT1 at $779.99 and the PRO1 at $794.99, with the GTW07 windshield kit at $349.99.
Quick Specs
- The GTW07 windshield needs the GT1 canopy installed first; it hangs from the canopy frame.
- Fiberglass is rigid, not flexible. Check overhead clearance in your barn or shop before the first drive-in.
- Two people make install faster. One holds the canopy square while the other snugs the brackets.
- Wax it like a boat. A coat of marine wax each spring keeps the gelcoat glossy for years.
