    I have a 66 Wildcat convert and want to replace the hydraulic cylinders which raise and lower the top. Does anyone have the process for their removal or a website where I can go? I don't have the body service manual (yet) and want to have them rebuilt. Thanks for your help. By the way, the top is down and the motor is not working so I have to remove them with the top down.

    GStage1 Always looking for parts!

    There is one screw that connects the piston to the top. Remove each one. If you have the rear interior in place, you will need to remove all that. Next, remove the screw holding the piston to the top. Unscrew hydraulic lines.
