Thanx for all the advise.

You can unbolt the rear arms under tension if you can figure out a way to to restrain them from flipping up. If you do figure out a way, you may have one heck of a time aligning it to bolt it back together. The recommended way to unbolt those arms is in the "UP" position where there is no tension on the arms.

Maybe Shane will have some input on that. He has removed a number of roofs for various reasons.

Now, Sunbrella fabric, I have a lot of experience with as I used to own a marine custom canvas business. I built everything that you can think of (for boats) out of Sunbrella. The thing to be aware of is that Sunbrella chafes easily. Everywhere that the Sunbrella touches a surface that moves (which the bags do) the fabric will wear through in a short time.
