I recently purchased a hard top from a 66 that Im trying to fit to my 73. I was told that the windshield frame to top bolt pattern was different but that everything else was the same. For whatever reason, it turned out the windshield frame was drilled to accept the ealier bolt pattern so I thought it was a go. So heres the problem. The top sits 3/4 of an inch from the windshield frame. The top is straight and as far as I can tell my windshield frame hasnt been chopped. Im afraid that if I unbolt the bed rails and bolt the windshield down first, then bolt the bedrails down that it would stress the top and crease or buckle it. Are tops swapable from 66-77? Or is there something wrong with my truck?
