Instructions:
Follow the instructions and perform the steps in the sequence given. Shortcuts to the directions may result in an unsatisfactory installation.
1. Place your tape on top ledge of the windshield.
2. Extent the tape to the rear of the body.
3. Where the tape hits the body , it should read the value in the chart below. Measure both sides. If it does, put the top on. If not, go to step 4.
- CJ 5 (1972-1975) — 70 3/4”
- CJ 5 (1976-1983) — 67 1/4 “
- CJ 7 & YJ — 75 1/8”
- CJ 8 — 97 11/16”
- TJ — 75 1/8”
- Unlimited — 89 7/16”
4a. CJ 5 Loosen the bolts and wing nut. Adjust windshield and tighten.
4b. CJ7 – CJ 8 – YJ Loosen bolts using a T40 torx wrench. Go to step 5.
4c. TJ & Unlimited Using a T40 Torx wrench, loosen the bolt above the doors hinge. Go to step 5.
5. Using a T50 tamper resistant Torx wrench or vise-grips, loosen this bolt. On the CJ 7 & YJ’s it’s on the top of the roll bar. On the TJ & Unlimited it’s on the side of the roll bar. This will be a 2 person job. One checks the measurement, the other person tightens the bolt. Remember 75 1/8” on both sides. (Unlimited 89 7/16”). Once this is accomplished, tighten up the bolt you loosened in step 4. Now you can put your top on. If the windshield is properly adjusted, the space between the windshield and the door should be the same on both sides.
