Has anyone tried to put a JKini on a JKU without taking the rear hardtop off. If so looking for some helpful DIY hints. Thx

 

I purchased a JKini at Jeep Beach and was disappointed that I couldn't install it on a hardtop. However I'm determined to find an acceptable way to mount and dismount with the hardtop on.

I will keep the forum updated with my progress.

 

I'd like to know too. Start in front, ended up in back and noticed this isn't going to work.

 

Im working on a way to replace the Freedom panels on the Hardtop with a Soft Top Bikini that is watertight that can still be removed easy and stored away. Im working on how I am going to fasten the side surrounds so I can collapse them against the header when I remove the top without taking them off. In the back I am working on using Starboard in three layers that will use the long screws for the hardtop through the soundbar. I cant believe someone isnt making something like this.

 

That's a great idea!

Take off, roll up and store. Rain, EZ attach. Also with some fiberglass spreaders to keep water from pooling.

 

Pls do keep us updated. This is why I'm not jumping on this top. Don't want to pull complete hardtop to put JKini on. Thx
