Default T-Top Is Kinda Loose

Hey guys,

I was putting my T-Top on the other day after a long cold winter, and I always give it a good tug to make sure it's on tight. (that sounds wrong)
Anyway, I noticed one of them had some play in it when I moved it around. Any cause and fix for this? I don't wanna be the one typing one of the "My t-top flew off" threads!

Thanks
-Brian

There is a thread on hear on how one of the members corrected this problem. I want to say that he bent the bracket to make the fit tighter or something along those lines. Try a search for it.

Check to make sure the center bar is tightened down, then check the pin guides in the A & B pillars and make sure they're tight. Those should be the only things that control a Tops placement and movement.

No problem. Re-reading it again it sounds like one of the pin guides is loose. There's two bolts that hold it in place. The front are easy, just remove the A-pillar cover. The back are a bit tough. Remove the B-Pillar cover and use a open ended wrench to tighen them up. And make sure the tops are in when you do this.
