So, I read about a method to check your top thickness. Quick and dirty, but easy and fun to do.
Hold your uke on its side and look down (i.e. you'll see the ukes side).
Gently squeeze the back and top with your fingers.
Does the top move? If it is too thick, it won't move.
I made a video in case my description isn't good:
