[Tigers] Fwd: Window adjustments

I took these measurements off the hard top on my car – soft top should be similar

Measurements made across passenger cabin from door to door opening.

 

Top of B post – 41.25”

Bottom of B post – 4’ 

 

Measurements off a convertible top could help Joe sort this out.

I don't think that's it. The Velcro on the top lines up with the Velcro on the frame. The top of the quarter window is not tilted far enough in to meet up with the seal on the windshield. So I need to figure out how to get the whole window tilted in.

 

I guess I need to take the window mechanism all apart and start over.

                To me, that sounds like the soft top is way too tight.

Just to follow up.  I'm following some excellent instructions I found on the teae.org <http://teae.org>  web site.  I can move the top of the window in or out a small fraction of an inch, but I need another .5"-.75".

Hi,

 

I need some tips for adjusting my windows.  I have installed a new soft top and the tops of the windows aren't meeting up with the weatherstripping on the top.  I need to be able tilt the windows more toward the interior of the car.  I've been playing around with the mounting screws for the window channels and nothing seems to affect the tilt of the windows. 

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

Joe Brown
