Can a leaky cab top be adjusted?
My top is leaking out of both front corners. Is there an adjustment that can be preformed on the top. If not, what seals need to be replaced and is this a dealer type of fix?
Thanks,

High,
What is the condition of ur seals, if their still good u may just need a adjustment. When u sit in the car w/the top closed, look at the front of it by the A pillar, along the vinyl covering u see two holes surrounded by plastic, marked "Auf"(off),"Zu"(on). Take the med. flathead screw driver w/ the handle out out of ur tool kit and turn once or twice twords "Zu", u should make sure both sides are tightened equal, get out of the car and step away from it and look along the front of the top, and also from the rear of the car to make sure its level. When correct it should have smooth operation and clamp somewhat quietly.
Do not over tighten! 2 or 3 turns at max should be enough, ck the operation and levelness of the top and if it needs more continue. Hope u get straightened out!
