Rear Hard Top Installation
NOTE: If the door frames are installed from soft top usage, they must be removed prior to installation of the hard top.
1. Inspect the hard top seals for damage and replace if necessary.
2. Install the hard top using the same steps for removal in reverse order.
Make sure that the hard top is sitting flush with the body at the sides and check to ensure that there is a uniform gap between the lift glass and hard top.
NOTE:
• The Torx fasteners that attach the hard top to the body should be torqued to 66
in lb +/- 22 in lb (7.5 N·m +/- 2.5 N·m) • It is not necessary to pinch connection
when reinstalling washer hose. Push on until click is heard.
