jackhartjr Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Hi folks, Can someone please explain how to replace the two cylinders? Thanks! Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas Escobar Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 You have to take off the trim on top of the roll bar (so the top has to be down), then take off the trim on the bottom of the roll bar where the lights are (the lights come out too). After that you take off the panel on the sides. There's a screw by the door and another one on the side. You have to look for them, all the panels are held on by Phillips screws so it's relatively easy to do. Once all the trim is off, I find it easier to have the top up, get a 14 or 15 mm wrench and socket/ratchet combo and get the top part of the lift off. Then take off the 2 hoses on the cylinder. That's pretty much it. There might be a step or 2 missing, but this is how I got mine off. If you want, I'll check the FSM for more details.

jackhartjr Posted April 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Nas Escobar, that was the ticket! Thank You! My mechanic said that had to be one of the poorest designed systems he has seen! It's done, I pick it up in the morning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsilney Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Trying to replace the cylinder in a 95 vert..my passenger side actually broke the shafts by the bolt. How do I get the cylinder out of the mounting....it looks like 2 pins are pressed in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
