I have a factory soft top on my 2016 JKU. Let me preface by saying I'm 67 years old and I don't have the strength I once had. Does anyone have any tips on closing it? It's heavy and cumbersome and I need a step stool in order to gain enough leverage to pull it up to close it (from halfway closed position). I've got a full length alien shade on it, so I can't stand on the back seat like I used to. Aside from the fact that I can't afford a retractable myTop, are there other soft tops on the market that are easier to operate? TIA
 
Looks like the sunrider, if so i have the same. I am wondering if you could attach a small strap to it to pull it close? It might make it easier to close.
