Not really a mod but I did it by myself

    I got a Safari, Windjammer & duster that I wanted to switch out this weekend.


    I drilled and installed the windshield header and started to take the soft top off and realized that I didn't have the torx tools to get the bows out.


    So I got a set today at work and will finish the jop hopefully this week.


    Not much but I'm a little proud of myself that I did it by myself with my tools.

    Good job Patti! My duster was probably one of my favorite things I ever bought my Jeep! You really don't even have to take the soft top completely off...it'll fit, folded up nice and tight, underneath the duster.


    It's awesome to hear you're wrenchin' on your Jeep! I know I sure wouldn't have the guts to drill into mine! :) :up:

    That's cool! Did it make you sick when you drilled the first hole into your pristine, unblemished TJ? :innocent: Now that you've broke the ice you will soon be lifting it and putting bigger tires on her. :up:

    thats kool patti
    now i know who to call when i need holes drilled into my tj


    pics would be nice


    way to go

    Thanks. I didn't think to take any pics.


    One whole wasn't quite lined up but I fixed it. It wasn't that hard drilling into it. I was really pleased with the way it turned out. I didn't even hurt myself. The header doesn't quite butt up flush against each other so I'll need to put a little sealer in the gap so it won't leak.

    The header can stay on with the factory soft top.


    The drill in would be more secure. I used stainless steel screws and sealer so it won't corrode.
