I reinstalled all the pieces and raised and lowered the roof, it seemed to be working OK, but I heard a slight pop at some point. I looked down into the left side after lowering the roof and saw that the pushrod (the reinforced plastic end) had popped off the ball (without damage). I lifted it up and it looked about a quarter of an inch too short to go back into place. After contemplating the situation I decided to take the easy way out and removed the 2 forward pushrods. The roof is now manual. The clamshell remains electrically operated so that it can be locked down.
Next spring I may consider doing the work to adjust the push rod lengths. Maybe.
