Installation Instructions
Replacement top (Part # 99702xx)
97-06 Jeep Wrangler
Step 1: If there is currently a soft top on the vehicle, remove it and save the screws removed from the
windshield header area.
Step 2: Fold the bow assembly back down so it is laying down flat along the back of the vehicle. Lay your
new top down inside the vehicle with the inside of the top facing up and the plastic strip sewn into the top
(at the front) across the rear of the vehicle on top of the header portion of the bow assembly. (Fig A)
Note: It is recommended before laying out top inside of vehicle to remove the windows to avoid scratching
them while installing the top.
Step 3: Line up the holes in the plastic channel sewn into the top with the holes in the factory header portion
of the bow assembly using the screws you removed in step 1. (Fig A)
Step 4: Take the top from the inside of the vehicle, pulling it towards the back of the vehicle and flip it over
the header. Fold the front corners out over the ends of the header. (Fig B)
(Fig A) (Fig B)
Step 5: Pull the bow assembly back up over the Jeep lining up the header on top of the windshield frame and
attaché the two clamps on the inner part of your windshield.(Do not clamp fully down at this time)
NOTE: Read entire instructions thoroughly before installing this product. It is recommended to
install this Top when temperatures are above 70 degrees. If the Top has any wrinkles this is
caused from packaging but once the top relaxes they will go away. You must have the factory
bow assembly in order to install this product.
