Project83-944 sorry to hijack your post.
XSboost, I thought the same thing , but I was very careful to make sure that the arms hit the header at the same time when retracting to make sure I did not strip a gear as you pointed out in your SR post many months ago. Arm/tooth count at drive gear is the same on both sides-rest assured. Will break out the micrometer tonite---great , another friggin tool! Also will look again tonite or tomorrow early AM and futz with it. I think it may be a stripped gear--but I hope not. Would like to get it fixed before I take it to the USGP Sunday. If I hit frustration mode, I'll give you a call on your cell or bring it over tomorrow. BTW What time ya up in the A.M. tomorrow in case I need to call?
Thanks!

It is a manual roof, but by the sounds of it, I will just have to let it work itself in.
