Z-top fitment comments, ideas

[JBauer]

The puzzling part about this top🙄

Top resting in place no hardware. Nice fit all around.



Then with front tabs and spinlock hardware installed and locked.




Top shifts rearward (enough to chip my paint ☹ ) and the front shifts away and up in the front. Any ideas would be appreciated. My brain is foggy.

Yup, I already mentioned it.
ALL 3 locks NEED to be in place and locked. ONLY then you will see the real fitment/gaps.
And I noticed, that locking in a certain order is extremely helpful to overcome (medium-major) locking tensions.

Atm, as far as I understand, you are locking either/or.
Only spinlocks...will pull it backwards
Only front latch...will pull it forward
That is normal, mine does that, too. Not a biggy.

So what about the front latch? It bolts in, but you cannot lock it, even without the spinlocks attached? I don't get the right picture here.

Oh I said i was foggy thus morning. I can't get the latch to fit with the inserts im using, the ones from convertible top. Waiting for info on new inserts. May try it without inserts.

This is why they give senior citizens discounts 🙄

With out inserts, latched. You Bran are the man 😀 Fits perfectly now
