Makes me really miss my granddad’s 05’ Jeep TJ! That thing was a blast! He sold his truck and Jeep to buy a 15’ Jeep Jku with a hard top. Never taken the whole thing off because it’s a daily driver and worried about electronics! Not near as much fun as the old no options Jeep TJ! That Jeep had no options at all. Didn’t even have a option for a/c, but never needed it!

Question, help appreciated. We have a 1997 Jeep TJ with a soft top but it does NOT have the hardware/frame like shown in this and other videos and doesn't look like it ever had that. The soft top just fits over the rollbar. Can anyone point me to a video that shows how to install a replacement soft top when there isn't a frame (not sure if that is the right terminology)? Thanks for any and all help!
