I would build the cage properly under the lightweight top. You will be able to build a taller cage (safer!) and also plan on mounting the top during the cage build. If you build the cage under the factory top, you will lose headroom and ultimately safety. Selling the factory hard top can also fund a lightweight top plus extras.

I'm awaiting a top from Sheridan for a cage build right now, as we won't even start building until we have a roof to snug the cage up against.
