Was keeping track. Off 20 times, on 19.
Some worthless observations.
1) Mentioned before, beware of sharp edges.
2) Put some rubber hose or tape on the wrench handle. At some point, someone is going to crack a window taking the rear screws on or off. I've made some scary noises not taking my time.
3) Don't try it yourself. I was successful, but now worth the risk. At least the 2 door. Maybe the 4 door is easier/lighter?
4) When you set the rear section on the ground, do not let it rest on the location pins. They are not designed to carry the whole weight. I put mine on some 2x6's.
5) When I take my T's off, I always unlatch the twist ones first, then the big lever. Seems they T's have less movement when you loosen the twist latches. I have a feeling if you release the lever first the T's will flex more. Probably Doesn't matter, but don't want to get a crack in an already compromised product.
6) When I put the T's on, without even trying I can get an imperfect seal on the center line if not careful.
7) Make sure your kids know which order the T's go on. (not gonna mention any names).
8) Chase all 10 threads/weldnuts ASAP if you have a tap. Made things a lot easier going on and off.
