Long time no post, I hope everyone is well!

I have started the top replacement project. The difficult part has been he frame. On the passengers side, second piece of rail back was bent and cracked. Took it out, had it welded now it will not fit correctly. The rear of the piece lies about 3/8 of an inch low and where that piece meets the front rail piece (right over side window) it stands about 2 inches above rolled up window. The official Mustang manual shows several eccentrics for adjustment. My frame has only one, just above the rear seat. So, I can't figure out a way to make any further adjustments.

Any suggestions, ideas, etc.?

Thanks all!

You might be able to get a piece of frame from Glazier Nolan.
