If your vehicle is equipped with a Dual Top, you must
remove one of the tops from the vehicle. If the soft top is
removed, the pivot brackets must also be removed from
the sport bar. The soft top was installed at the factory for
shipping purposes only. The soft top and the hard top are
to be used independently. Removal is mandatory to
prevent any possible wear and tear on the soft top. Your
vehicle warranty will not cover damage resulting from
both tops remaining on the vehicle at the same time for
extended periods of time.
