The rear cap on a 4-door weighs way less than I thought it would. Glad we finally got to see this.

My neighbor just got a 4D 2021 Rubicon and told me the removable top is over 120lbs. He installed a winch system in the ceiling of his garage so he could remove it.

Stupid question - why are the front left and right panels different weights?

Looks like they are slightly different sizes.

Interesting. Wonder why ??
My guess is it allows the driver to remove just their panel and enjoy a better view, but that’s really just a guess.

Nope. I’m totally wrong. 😂

They overlap/interlock, with the driver side on top. But the passenger side needs to support both so it's probably got more reinforcement in the overlap part.

2. I’m assuming this is the MIC top. No word on Mod top weight differences?
Only thing I’ve ever seen announced was that the MOD top was 50% heavier. Or was the MIC tip was 50% lighter? Great, the people not understanding the difference in that thread has my memory all mixed up. 😔

That makes sense.

That is A LOT lighter than the 4dr jk wrangler hardtop!! I should be able to manhandle the back section on the 4 door and simply install a rack on the side of the garage for it to rest on rather than an install an additional hoist-a-top system! Even if the mod top is 50% heavier or up to 100lbs, that can still be done single handedly (I’m waiting for the mod top) Thank god!

Those weights likely don't include the 'now standard' headliner. What are we guessing, another 20 lbs?

@Bullitt is there any more context or explanation to the list on BN?
