to “Soft Top — If Equipped” in this section.
A visual instruction sheet is also included
with the vehicle that details the procedure
below.
The hard top is not designed to carry any
additional loads, such as after-market roof
racks, spare tires, building materials,
hunting or camping supplies, etc. For
optional Mopar accessory roof racks, refer
to “Roof Luggage Rack” in “Getting To
Know Your Vehicle.”
Do not move your vehicle until the top has

The removal of the hard top requires four
adults located on each corner. Failure to
follow this caution could damage the hard
