The leaks on the Freedom (hard) top was a short lived problem on the very early models, but has since been eliminated.
 
Sadly, that's just not so.

Freedom hard top panel stowage by tedjan

Hello Group,I hope this question was not addressed previously.(i did search).My wife just bought a 2009 Wrangler Sahara 2 door with the freedom hardtop and was wondering what was the best way to store the panels inside the car when removed.
  Our salesman said to place them between the front and rear seats but were hoping someone has a better solution than that.
  Thanks in advance for your input.

Congratulations on your wife's fine choice - she will love her Jeep!
If she insists on keeping the panels with her in the Jeep, as opposed to at home, I can think of two alternative options: (1) she could remove the back seat and lay them flat on the floor, but if she does this, she should place a blanket or some covering between them so they don't scratch each other; or (2) Mopar sells a panel carrier that attaches to the trailer hitch. There may be a picture of it on the Jeep or Mopar website. Or, there is at least one aftermarket manufacturer who sells a roof rack that hold the panels, but probably not for highway use. If you do an internet search, you will find A LOT of aftermarket items for the Jeep. Enjoy!!

Looking for a Soft Top by fishous13

I am looking for a soft top for my 2009 4D unlimited.
 
It came with the freedom top.
 
Are there any recommended soft tops out there that are more reasonably priced? I see a ton in the jeep magazines...but do not know where to start. I need something reasonably easy to install that can be interchanged with the freedom top. Something that allows flexibility and easy storage as well as durability Suggestions?

Should be. 3yr/36Kmiles bumper to bumper minus consumables like clutch plates, wiper blades, and brake pads.
 
Tailgate brackets shouldn't be consumable.

Wrangler running ruff by rwitbeck

I have a 2000 Wrangler that studders when running at any less then 1800 rpm's. It bucks real bad unless I constantly down shift to keep rpm's high. It also smoke's pritty bad which makes me think it has alot of carbon build up. I live on a island where you can hardly get above 40 mph which is not helping the carbon problem. Any ideas on how to make it run a little smother would be great. Ry

Additives to gas to help clean the injectors and valves.
 
Check for oil leaks. Run synthetics. Check your air filter. Check for any codes for your throttle position sensor.

Key word is reasonable.
 
I knew of one locally for 600, but is that reasonable?
 
Check craigslist, ebay, and various jeep forums and you may find a deal. But you'll need the frame/hardware to mount it. Bestop is about the best/only game in town for a quality top for a Jeep.

Might be worth checking the ignition system too (plugs, coil pack etc.).
