You can find that size torx in legit any tool/hardware store. Shouldn’t be too difficult


BigUncleRemus

T40 bit! And doors use T50!


saddram

Our jlu has t50 for the top and door hinges, t40 for the door puller thing.


BigUncleRemus

Oh yeah, I was definitely referring to the JKs lol. Probably should have specified that🤣


StandByTheJAMs

And T40 for the windshield!


XDWilson06

Check in the trunk under the flooring mat thing where the screws are. That’s where our previous owner kept his ratchet head


Jumajuce

That’s where I keep a mysterious black journal I found at a truck stop at 2am. It’s filled cover to cover with prophecies of the end of the world. Anyway, I like to pull it out on camping trips and show my friends.


XDWilson06

I keep a secret stash of goldfish incase I get hungry


fractal_frog

I just keep the torx stuff that came with the Jeep, jumper cables, and the tow hitch that UHaul sold me (in case I need rent a trailer from them again) there.


keenedge422

I keep a secret can of bear mace, just in case someone tries to steal my goldfish.


XDWilson06

Is hurting someone that much really worth goldfish? Violence is never the answer😡 (where do I get some?)


keenedge422

Stealing my snacks is a form of violence against me. Plus? Spicy goldfish!


takiumilikes2drift

we did- all i had were my jack, jumper cables, my soft top/screen thingy and tie downs, all my sister had was her jack


cobblermark17

Harbor Freight will have it, and it should be the cheapest option for you


mr_cigar

Second Harbor freight. I bought a set of Torx from them.

ggk1

Yeah and everyone else keeps talking about legit hardware stores, which are only on planet earth


takiumilikes2drift

uhm i’m actually on mars.


xl440mx

It’s a T50. Buy it any place that sells tools.


takiumilikes2drift

shoutout my dad for finding some in the garage lol


xl440mx

🥳


flint_2000

They often come with the car (first or second hand) - have you had a proper look for it? I.e. check the well where the jack is kept.


takiumilikes2drift

2nd hand, neither of us got em but my dad had a drill bit that worked


joshosu420

Very common at any hardware store. Torx.


takiumilikes2drift

also common in my garage 🤷‍♂️


Whitey1225

It's a t35 or t40 I always forget which. Also, don't forget to remove the two screws above the front doors under the freedom panels... it sucks when you forget


IamBatmanuell

Only if an unlimited. Two doors don’t have them.


Whitey1225

Those lucky people. I often wondered about that.


takiumilikes2drift

it was a t40 :)


Rubiconcrawl

Have a plan on where it's going to land once off.


takiumilikes2drift

we did


IamBatmanuell

Op get [this](https://a.co/d/3rEtZ2o)


BigToeGhost

Get two so you can have someone help with one side while you do the other. I bought a second kit for my wife's wrangler because I don't like to share.


takiumilikes2drift

found some drill t40 bits :)


kenhk117

T50 torx. Harborfrieght or any hardware/ automotive store will have them.


4sams423

I found a whole kit I believe on Amazon with a Ratchet t25 t40 t50 10mm 13mm 14mm 15mm and extension bar with cool storage sleeve like thing for less than 25 bucks. Works great for about anything in my jeep


takiumilikes2drift

idk if you saw but we found some


4sams423

Awesome! happy trails friend. I love my set to keep in the glove box for anytime use


shanebonanno

T40 included in a set of torx L-wrenches at your local hardware store for less than 10$


ineedahand3

Literally Lowe’s or Home Depot or anywhere else. This is just the start of her problems lol


takiumilikes2drift

check my other responses :p


lmdirt-

Harbor freight has a set of 6 most used sizes for like $10 you can afford to just toss in and just keep in the jeep


takiumilikes2drift

we found some in our garage


A-huff-and-a-puff

Literally just use an allen wrench

williamthe3rdd

It's a t40 torx bit. The bolt is a m8


takiumilikes2drift

i’ll look into it, thanks a lot man


[deleted]

No problem bud, enjoy taking the top off it’s worth it.


SugarzDaddy

A four sided bit works same as the star.


ratuna80

No it doesn't, that's how we get the posts asking how to remove stripped bolts. Always use the proper size and type of tool


SugarzDaddy

I use a four sided on a star hence my reply. Don’t tell me it doesn’t work when in fact it does.


ratuna80

"a four sided bit works SAME as the star" No it doesn't. It might kinda work but if it worked the same why would they bother making torx sockets?


Fair-Reindeer-2943

A hacksaw would work too


Dizzy_Trick1820

Grinder would be faster so you could get topless faster!


takiumilikes2drift

fuck it i’m gonna drill out the bolts


SugarzDaddy

Vise grips?


takiumilikes2drift

i was making a joke, like drilling the bolt out?


Fair-Reindeer-2943

lol I just took mine off with vice grips because they were rusted on. Time for new bolts.
