Tutorial for R&R roof hydraulics
I have a leaking hydraulic cylinder. I plan to pull all 8 of them and send to TopHydraulics for rebuild.
I will also be replacing the passenger side roof weatherstrip as it is swollen.
Anyone aware of a good tutorial for this job?
Would like to find something that covers it start to finish.
Any help appreciated.

No. I replaced the one going to the front latch. Topped off the fluid, but apparently, I have another leak. Just leaving the top up for now. Had some serious health issues, so couldn't have done much anyway. Back on my feet now.
Would really like to see a good tutorial on manually opening the roof and getting to the other cylinders.
