Default soft to " puckers"

Gang - I just picked up a 15 JK 2 dr & noticed the top has a large pucker or ridge near to back sail panel on the top -- Are your tops smooth or like mine?
Thanks

Hi Mike. I'm not sure about the factory ones but my back bow has 3 different adjustment holes where it attaches to the roll bar so you can tighten it up.

Whenever I see a soft top like that, my guess is that they lowered it, then when they tried to raise it it had shrunk in the cold, and they couldn't fully extend the rear bow. My 78 CJ7 was a soft top, but my 2010 is a hardtop so I haven't had any experience with newer soft tops.
