Hi all
I have just fitted the new pump and rams to my convertible however I think a bracket is possibly missing.
Car was imported unfinished. Prev owner had roof frame powdercoated so I presumed all the bits were back on.
I came to fit the new rams (supplied with the car) and there seems to only be one lug to fit them to. When I tested the mechanism one ram keeps popping off. I presume there should be a small bracket with a lug to fit in the other hole in the ram to hold it secure but there isn't one. There is a part of the main frame with threaded holes like a bracket should bolt on there. Any suggestions team.
Also I have a loose frame/bar that must bolt to the frame (I believe it threads through the roof above the back window, but I have no idea of the pivoting fasteners it may need.
Cheers
Steve
