Getting ready to replace the bolts that attach the pop top to the hinges at the rear, four on each side. There appears/feels like there are nuts that those bolts go into, not threaded into the hinges themselves. So, are the nuts captive nuts (attached to the hinges) or are the just a nut and lock washer back there? Why the question? It's going to be easy if captive nuts, more complicated if trying to juggle a wrench blind on the back side and the screwdriver in the other. |
