Remove Bestop Trektop to Put on Hardtop

[Educ8or78]

Has anyone tried to swap their Bestop Trektop for the hard top? Does everything have to be removed or only parts of it? I would like to switch in the next few months to prep for winter.
Thanks!

Just the weather stripping on the back remains. It goes quicker than the first time though. I am about to put mine back on for the fall. It will be third time installing it. Taking it back off isn't bad either.

It would be great if someone can post pictures on the parts required to take off and swap for the hardtop to go back on. I wish i took pictures, I am hoping to remove the minimum.

I'll take some pictures of mine later, I'm fixing to switch back since I got a toplift pro. I have the parts in my garage arranged how I took them off.

Thanks I have my hardtop on the toplift pro right now wondering if I can somehow hang the Bestop on it when swapped

The main bow assembly in left together, the rear one I just unbolted it from the roll bar as an assembly too.

For re-installing the Trektop, do any of you put it back on fully assembled? Do you take some of the brackets off first? Mine is fully assembled and it looks like it will be difficult to place on top in one piece without scratching anything. I still haven't found a re-installation how-to, and was wondering if some of you who switch tops for the season have some tips or best practices.

There is a step by step guide somewhere on the forums that I used recently.
