Well, the Bestop soft top came in yesterday and I got a head start. I was going to wait and do it at my parents this weekend with my dad, bro-in-law, and nephew but I have 0 patience. :) So the top brackets are the most difficult part (IMO) and for me it was murder! The 2 sections that you are suppose to put together were not cut properly and they were NOT going to go together without alterations. So...I stopped where I was yesterday and then went to The Home Depot and got some metal files and screws. I spent the next 4 hours filing and forcing the brackets together. I feel like I do after the first day of working out after a year of being lazy. Also, the back window piece was missing the zipper slider on the top zipper so I had to call Bestop AGAIN and have them send me a new window. All that said, it was worth it afterwards...
p.s. It has also been running a little off since I had the exhaust work done so I had Jen pick up some new spark plug wires on her way home and that fixed it! Runnin' like a champ now! I'm so proud. If only it got better gas mileage :P
