Last July I purchased a 2003 wrangler. I am pretty sure the hard top has been on for atleast 5 or more years
Today I planned to take it off. I was able to figure out how to disconnect the wiring to the wiper. I removed all 6 bolts in the back and then undid the clips in the front.
No matter how I tried, the top is not coming loose. I got inside and put my back against the roof, but no movement. tried laying on my back and using feet to push against the back hatch sill, but that did nothing. It seems to have sealed itself to the tub.
Wanted to see if others have had such issues and how they resolved them. I figure trying to pry it up may do more damage then good. would especially appreciate any tips on where to apply pressure and where not to apply pressure.
thanks.
