you did most of it with one hand! awesome man! it's been a month since we've bought our jeep and we haven't mustered the courage to open the top... thanks for the video.. hopefully we try it today and succeed!
Thanks, just needed the first 10 seconds and I was on my way. I never thought of starting in the middle when putting the top back up. Sometimes it is staring you right in the face. Thanks!
There's a ton of videos showing how to take the top down, but not a lot putting it up. Yours is the best! Very helpful! Just wish I would've watched before tearing the stitching out of one of my drip retainers.
Thanks a lot for this video man, I've always had a problem with latches where the front of the soft top connect. Those hooks just won't go in, but this is a very easy way of doing it. THANK YOU SIR!
Well done, beautiful country out there in Wyoming. I have an '05 TJ Rocky Mtn with the same soft top. Honestly I don't know how anyone can have a hard top on their Jeep. They are meant to have that great open air experience in just a few minutes. My doors and windows are in the garage from late April - early November. Of course there are days where heavy rain is in the forecast so I begrudgingly button up the TJ. I couldn't imagine driving anything else but a TJ or CJ-7. O|||||||O 🇺🇸 Only in a 2 Dr 🇺🇸 '41 - '06
Got a spankin' new to me oem top like this and it went on perfectly. Thanks to your vid. (I also took the hard top off by myself as per another video before yours lol) keep on Jeepin' 🇨🇦🌞
Thank you so much for putting this video together. It was a big help to me as I put the top back up for the first time. I assume each time will get a little easier, but it's great to know I've got help out here on the net!
Haha! Thx for the compliments everyone. Keep on taking those roofs off and enjoying your jeeps! Sorry the sales rep was worthless for you my friend! Enjoy...
I appreciate this video, but with a newer top things don’t quite go into place as easily. If you have any other tips please feel free to share them. I’m torn between regret and the top may never go back on. 😭
One tip I can share with you is to park in a sunny spot and let the top warm up. You'll be amazed at the difference even that makes! Definitely don't try it on a cold night... the top shrinks and gets much more stiff. Lemme know if that helps!
What brand soft top is this? I’m looking to get one that is easier to put back up on my own! Mine has a lip above the front windshield that is so hard to do!
@kkim1177 Hmmm.... can you be more specific? Are the rear flaps already tucked in near the tailgate? I always start with the front hooks/latches before I attach anything else to avoid that problem. Make sure you're roof is completely unattached at all points and then see if the front latches will reach? Just thinking out loud!
Love the satisfying ‘thunk’ of shutting Jeep doors and trunk. Quality build.
Absolutely THE BEST "top up" video I've ever seen! Thank you.
Such clear and easy to follow instructions- thank you!!
You seriously give the best demonstrations! This video and the one on how to put the top down were so helpful thank you!
Literally, the only useful top video. I couldn’t get the dang latches down and this video showed me the trick.
Thank you.

Thanks!
this is my 3rd jeep but I've learned an easier way after watching this. thanks
This video really helped me. I wish my drip rails went down as easily as yours do though.

thanks for this. the tip about the clamps in the front helped.

Thanks for this!! Just got my first jeep
very helpful video, for future might consider using a go pro on a helmet so you don't have to pause and have both hands free!

I love my jeep, but don't love dealing with this top. I'm about to head out to the garage armed with your video. Thank you!
Right on! Good luck and thanks!
thank you for making this! :)

Hey Kyle, I bet they'll soften up with time! Literally just put the top back up just now after a nice day of jeepin'!
Thanks again.....this makes the job easier.
Awesome video. Chalked full of good information
Rear window kicked my ass
Very helpful. Great video.
Good video, my latches don't close as easy as yours. Just bought a 99 and very similar top to yours. First time only took us 45 minutes. Thanks
My latches don’t go that easy either, how do you get yours in? I just bought a 97 Jeep Wrangler TJ
You saved my life
You, Sir, are a stud!
Thanks! Helped A lot 👍
thank you for the video, the stupid saleman could not take it off right or show me how to put it back up, you saved me a trip back to the dealer
Thank You so much I was Killing Myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha! Thx for the compliments everyone. Keep on taking those roofs off and enjoying your jeeps! Sorry the sales rep was worthless for you my friend! Enjoy...
Thanks for the video. I will give this a shot! :)
extremely helpful... thanks!
I ve always wanted to hv one ever since watching Andrew Stevens drove one in TJ Hooker... but u dont hv 1 in my country
On my 2001 jeep TJ the side windows the lower flap will not stay tucked in. If anyone has any suggestion I would grateful.
What brand of soft top is that I have a Best Top and very hard to install like that one you show works well
This top is just stock from the factory!

hi there...that plastic retainer for the side windows is available on the2005 model also cuz i dont have it on mine...thanks in advance
thanks!
What is you accidentally took the back window out? When should I install it?
I don't think I understand the question. Can you explain what you mean? I'll help if I can!
What brand soft top is this? I’m looking to get one that is easier to put back up on my own! Mine has a lip above the front windshield that is so hard to do!
This is just a completely stock roof, straight from the factory! I wish you luck in your endeavor to change yours out!
Do you have to have roll bar on to put soft top on
I'm not 100% sure but it seems like you might.
Tnks!!
Ups! Not Andrew .. its Andrian Zmed
Never mentioned two essentials steps. Installing plastic window holder and installing soft top.
Oh shit. I didn't fold my top down. I took it all the way off. Am I fucked?
My latch wont reach the front shield

I've been making it harder all along
To much wind
Someone's wittle ears got hurt. 😒
You really need to use a tripod. You are making me sea sick and the wind noise is driving me crazy.
I believe they have medication available for seasickness... Sorry about that, though! Have a great day and feel better, man!
So many soft pansies, another baby. Grow a pair would ya!
