New to us 2010 JK with a soft top. The manual recommends removing the rear window whenusing the sun rider feature above 40mph.

Is this a problem if we don't remove the window?

TIA

 

I do it all the time, I guess I missed that in the manual. Doh.

Haven't had any issues with it.

I had mine catch air and the top came back inside and block my face.going 65 mile/hr lol...I do up, or all down for hwy...sunrider w/o removing window for city driving.... Kinda pita to just remove the back window for hwy w sunrider, go all the way take the other 2 out and take her down..my 2 cents

 

Same here. Never saw that warning and never had any problems.

 

I usually zip it down and let it hang inside. (Little scuff from speaker
I could probably glue something to the speaker to solve that.) No trouble city or highway

 

This. But i've also forgotten to take it down and all was fine as well...

 

Never saw this warning for my 2011. I've never driven over 60 with the sunrider back and the windows in.

Guess it makes since, probably puts a lot of pressure on the rear window. However, if I'm gonna take the windows out, might as well take another minute to fold the top completely down...

 

Why not just roll it up? Thats what i do... and That's why the Jeep has those bands in the back!

 

the manual recomends it in my 2011 because without the back window out it basiclly makes a big sail. i never had a problem but i guess it could pull the pins our for the sunrider and the whole top will come down

 

It causes extra drag and acts like a parachute, it's kinda like driving on the free way with the rear windows of a car rolled down.
