Need a hand to pull top off

Post by landshark »

I would like to pull the top off sometime this week. Afternoons or evenings are best. Expect it to take 15 minutes or less. Would love to have three people.

Need a hand to pull top off

Post by landshark »

I need to pull the carpet off the inside of the top as the roll bar is in the way. plus I need access to the inside quarter panel seam to weld in patches. Will be easier without the top on. I swear nothing else is being removed from the body.





Seriously. Been down this path [emoji1]

Are you leaving the top off so you can get in and out of the Bronco. Not that you have a small garage or anything.... I guess it's how you use it that counts.
Definition of cool.
