S when I put my soft top down the bars sit parallel to the roll bar. I think it should be parallel to the back of the jeep. I use bungis to secure but want to know what I am doing wrong. Is this OK?
Thanks

That's ok if you disconnect it from the roll bar it will lay flat.

Sorry - do you mean disconnect the bungi cord or remove the screws?

I had this exact same problem. You need to tuck the folds of the soft top towards the center of the jeep. It's the grey areas of soft top and the part pinched between the bars. This is what is resting on the roll bars causing the soft top bars to push up.. Just lift up a bit on the bars and tuck those corners in. They should fold at a 45 degree angle.

Thanks OBWan!

How did you fold the top before you lowered it? I always fold it back in a 'W' into the sunrider position first, then I lower it down and it lays parallel with the tub. I then run the Velcro straps that came it through one of the holes in the tub to keep it from bouncing around.

Would be great to see pics of how people fold their softtops. I feel like I'm doing mine wrong too because it doesn't fold right down.

google is your friend. Lots of youtube video's and even a video on jeeps official site.

Just the bungi's. It should like flat. You might have to play a little with the folds in the top to get it to lie down all the way, but it will.:thumb:

I can't seem to get the top in a "W".

When I get home from work I will snap a few shots of the steps I take.

Mine lays flat in the tub, and I never bother with the velcro straps or bungees. I never really notice bouncing back there. The material bunched up between the bows keeps it from going completely flat.
