    Um. Yeah. Price a set of top cylinders sometime. There's a guy who fixes them, but they are repairable ONLY if the piston rod is in PERFECT condition.

    Eh, stick a hardtop on it and call it a day.

    That sounds like an easy fix until you discover that the soft top cylinders also lock the hard top down. They also keep that retractable roll bar in the down position.
