Question on Problems with Convertible Mechanism
![Default](https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I have a 2005 Conv. I went to raise the top a week ago and on the drivers side one the links was broke on the hardware that raised the top. Looks like a clean break in the metal but not sure how it happened. The top has stopped on the way down since I have owned the car and the previous owner had the same problem. You had to tap it on the part that rests on the windshield and then it would continue down, not sure if this caused the problem.
Looking for anyone with a similar problem and maybe how to fix it other than replacing the whole mechanism. My first post on the forum so thanks in advance for any help.

I may be able to help but I can't visualize from your photos exactly where that broken piece is located. I have a complete convertible top framework. Can you better describe the location of that broken piece and can you post a better / larger photo OR e-mail me those photos you have so I can blow them up for a better look? RedDogNumber1@aol.com

Thanks for that tip George . . . Now I can see it! I'll go see if that section / part is removable from my top framework . . .
