Bronco Hard Top Bracket

[Thor91]

I need help from the forum gang. Can as many folks as possible get some great photos of the hardtop bracket on top of the bronco? The one that when you reinstall the hardtop, you put in one bolt on the left and right side up top before adding the next panel (4 door).

I am thinking mine may be bent, and I’m hoping to see a ton of detail well lit photos that show how that bracket sits, and if mine is bent and may be interfering with it sitting down fully/sealing properly.

It’s not that first link.

it is this bracket that is connected to the hard top that gets one bolt into frame up top.

That’s the way mine looks before I tighten it down. Mine has two bolts on each side. (‘24)

Yep. I read on Rockworx website that the 2024 and newer models have two bolts there. Mine is a 2025 so this jives.

Off the hardtop is yours straight? Mine (not the photograph) looks like it may be bent, keeping the hardtop higher off the body even when the bolt is tightened

Unfortunately mine’s not off at the moment. I’m leaving shortly for a weekend trip to New River Gorge NP in WV, or I’d take mine off and check for ya.

I had my hard top off two days ago. That bracket lays flat against the rollbar regardless of whether the bolts are in place or not.

Is it nice and flat against the hard top as well? So, a nice straight bracket, or is there a drop down bend from the hard top that then flattens on the bracket for where it bolts to frame

@Thor91 - I had the top off of my Bronco yesterday so I took some pics of the brackets for you. They are perfectly flat.
