Need help if you have a Sunrider front soft top. The one that replaces the freedom panels in the summer (at least in my area). I can get a good deal on one on FB marketplace, new inbox. They sold their Jeep.

My concern for those that have them as I can't tell by install or video (YouTube).

Note in my pictures I have metal grab rails that help a big guy slide in much better than the paracord ones that would hit me in the head getting in an out.

Will these metal grab handles interfere with the Sunrider mounts? I can't tell if they are flush mounted or are concave and will fit over the mounts.

These don't currently interfere with the freedom panels.

If my pictures aren’t that good… this is the link of what I have

@Bestop maybe you can help or guide me?

Those grab handles almost certainly would interfere with the side rails on a Sunrider. I have the Mopar grab handles, and the side rails of the Sunrider are a very tight fit. So tight, that when I first got the Sunrider I took the grab handles off. I later reinstalled them with the Sunrider, and the side rails do bow up just a little bit. You probably could modify the side rails enough to retain your grab handles, but you have to decide if it is worth it to have a Sunrider. I use my Sunrider from April to November.

Hey! Yes, your metal grab handles will interfere with the placement and mounting of the door rails, unfortunately, I'm sorry!
