Roof question

So if I have a 986, and the roof is in good alignment, no problems, and I tweak say, the RHS pushrod length slightly, say to increase its length by a few millimetres. What would be the effect? What element of the convertible top alignment would change?
Thanks for any response.

Since nobody has replied....why not give it a try and see? If the results aren't what you want, just return it to it's original position.

Moreles only about force/tension in the linkage. It really should be synchronised. If it works flawless I would not touch it tbh.
