Anybody care to offer observations and/or recommendations for an aftermarket complete 6 hose convertible top hose (latch and operating cylinders) set? I see where “Top hydraulics” and “Cabrio hydraulics” both offer these sets.

Thanks,
Brian W.

Here is a thread that gives most of it. the latch is a bit of a pain but lots of write ups on that.
Be sure and get the rams rebuilt as part of the package.
Have lots containers to hold the parts of different systems you will be taking apart and have room to put some of the larger parts.

 

many have used Top Hydraulics, I used Cabriolet Hydraulics and am pleased with the hoses - 13 years since install and top cycles flawlessly almost every day
