The f#@!*'ng top

[Pablito]

Hello everyone....I have a question for the toolheads here.

I've been reading for the past couple of days the info regarding the convertible top, I've visited Toolpants reference and basically I have been thru the same headaches everybody else....

I'm at the point where my top opens and closes as planned, however now the "clamshell", once the top closes and settles the ball end from the driver's side slider pops out. Initially was doing it when the car flexed (either by a road bump or by enering the driveway sideways) now as soon it closes, it pops out.

I had all the previous mishaps and fortunately overcame them, this last niggle, however had me scratching my head. Could it be just a matter of realigning the trannys or there might be something else I'm overlooking....
