@@jmarxful I'm curious what all they were doing. Did you buy a new hard top? Did you buy the Jeep with just the soft top? if the Jeep was originally built with just the soft top ordered, they don't run the wiring for the defrost and rear wiper. They also don't run the line for the washer fluid. The arm on the steering wheel that you use to turn on the wipers doesn't have the rear wiper lever. So I was curious if the Jeep needed to have all of that added or if you were just taking it to the dealership to have the top swapped and all of that stuff is already on there.

@@Wrangler4XEFans To be honest, I don't have an answer to that yet. I just got a quote from the dealership for the purchase of hard top and wiring with the cost of installation. But in the quote they stated 6 hours of labor. My Rubicon did only come with the soft top and you are right I don't see any lever for the rear wiper. I am going to the parts department to place the order later today when I do I will check with the service department on what actually needs to be added to make this work. I am all the way out here in Hawaii so the only way to get a hard top is through the dealership.

This is so awesome! Great video! Did you order the hard top from a specific website or did the dealership order it for you? I bought a soft top 2 door jeep last year and I'd like to put a rack on it and I prefer the way a rack looks with a hard top.

I have a 2021 4XE that came from factory with soft top. I am wanting to put a hard-top on. I know I need to purchase the wiring in order to use the rear window and wiper, but is there anything else I need to connect the hardtop at the mount points? If so, should this come with the hardtop kit?

The mounting points are all there. It’s just 8 screws that will come with the top. Your windshield wiper lever will need changed out too.

Awesome video! I just ordered the oem soft top for my 4xe and I also have the my lifter hoist. Question, when I put the freedom panels in the storage net on the my lifter, it causes the hard top to lean backward when u hoist it up. I have to hoist the hard top back to the floor to readjust the brackets to level it out. I noticed yours stayed level when you took the panels out of the storage net? I’m wondering now if I am doing something wrong with the positioning of my brackets on the hoist? Any recommendations?? Again, thanks for this video!!

Are the cinch straps toward the front? I wonder if you have it in there backwards? I have mine toward the front. I could see it getting off balance if the back straps were in the front so maybe that question doesn't apply. Do you have the whole thing tight so that the foam blocks are on or at least close to the top when it's lifted?
@jefferyfarmer8454
@jefferyfarmer8454 2 жыл бұрын
@@Wrangler4XEFans I think I had the straps in the correct orientation but I will def take note when I take it off again in a week or two. The foam blocks were pretty close, I don’t think I had them sitting on the top though. Another thing I will look at when I take it off. It was the only thing I didn’t like about the hoist, so hopefully your suggestions help!
