[Tigers] Soft Top Hinge

[GARY WINBLAD]

Wow Ron, hopefully that's not a part you will have to use.. looks like its been the bay
since 1965, LOL.
YES, the spring does pivot with the arm.
Joe, you may want to remove any paint and oil the joint so it all rotates easily.

I thought maybe it was supposed to rest against the pivoting arm that attaches to the soft top frame but the shape of it does not match the arm and won't stay on it.
