Like the title states, if you think removing the soft top with a short wife/significant other/neighbor/friend etc. will be easy, think again. Went to go pull the soft top off the wife's bronco this morning as I'm swapping it out for the bestop trektop and I didn't realize it would be so heavy and my wife who is pretty strong but as tall as a grasshoppers kneecap at 5'2" would have such a hard time lifting her side of the top's frame out of the mounting pocket and then walking it back over the spare tire & 3rd brake light. This was even after putting the bronco in the street and having her stand on the curb giving her an extra 4-5" of height. I can literally remove my LJ wrangler's soft top by myself and carry it into the garage.
Good news is...we're still talking and married but we both had some words of frustration towards the heavy a** top. Bad news is...the strut definitely rubbed against the rollbar when removing the top and I'll need to touch that up.
