Yea you need a little adjustment there buddy. They might have goofed the 2 side straps.

Yea, but you'd still have to take apart your interior to get to the other end of it.

That bar that's rubbing on your roll hoops, I believe there's a strap on each side of it, about 1" wide, just below the bend. They should have been fastened to one of the nuts that hold the rear edge of your top down.

as you put the top down just push back on that bar and it will pull the top back and will go all the way down! it will keep the top from getting pinched

That's only on the 00-01s.

You've seen quite a few mis-adjusted softtops then.

That's the same problem I had, the bar going across the top that is sticking up right by the roll bars isn't folding into place.

When you are putting your top down, there are three canvas supports going across the top, you need to either move the middle forward or backward, you'll figure it out, and it will fold nicely into place.

2000-01?
