    When I was closing the top last night it closed almost all the way and stopped just short of getting the back part folded up. I can touch the header bar to windshield but it is not folded enough in the back part and I do not want to force it because it feels like it will break something. It appears that the main arms are not aligning with the pin that they grab hold of and they are resting on the edge of them and getting stuck. I need to get the top closed..I have followed the emergency procedures but that has not worked either. I might have the bent frame problem. Do I need to disconnect the cylinders that operate the top and just work it back and forth to close it? I have no idea what to attempt next.

    Chris,

    You may want to post this in the 348/355 section. This is not an uncommon problem.
