To take the top off your bronco is actually pretty easy, but I know the first time I did it I was pretty nervous that is was going to be difficult and take a long time. It only takes me about 10 minutes but there are a couple tricks I do.
I only put in 4 bolts to hold my top on in the back. And I put the bolts in the spots that are easy to get to along the bed rail. Then I just take my 1/2 inch wrench and slide it over the nut under the rail, the take my 1/2 inch socket and loosen the bolt.
There are 7 bolts along the windshield but I only keep two in there for summer and those are really easy to get to.
Then what I’ve done is taken two 2x4s and added a couple eye bolts to the ends. Then I slide the 2x4s under the top. The top isn’t super heavy and I can lift it with my back and slide the 2×4 in.
I’ve also put 4 eye bolts into the studs. Make sure you get these in the studs not just in the drywall. Then I take my ratcheting straps. Hook one end to the bolt in the ceiling and the other to the bolt on the wood. And ratchet it until it’s tight.
