Old snap Kayline top mounting question

[got-broncos]

I am installing a vintage snap Kayline top. Does the metal horizontal rod above the doors fit into a small bracket in the front like a stc top? Or does it just rest on top of the windshield? I dont have any angle brackets for behind the riser for that rod to slip into, but it might not need them.

Yes, there should be a bracket for the rod to slip into. Here's a screen shot from the installation instructions.

I have the hardware to my old Kayline except one of the aluminum angles that holds the snaps on the rear fender. PM me if intrested.

Thanks for the help. It looks like I need to find Those brackets item 18 in drawing A. Does anybody have those? I might be able to fabricate those using my STC ones as a pattern.
