Hi folks:

Would like to get some feedback from others as to how hard it is to latch their pop top. Maybe I'm just getting weak or old, but it really takes a huge amount of effort to get the latch to catch. My pop top has always has always sat a little bit high on the driver side too. I can pull it down, but it seems to want to pop back up as though the top is somehow tweaked out of square or something. I have replaced both hinges, and one of the support struts that seem to have a slight bend to it with little change. Any suggestions on how to go about adjusting this to improve the ease of closure?

Troy
