Could someone with a non-89 style boat please measure the pop-top supports for me? I need the measurement from center to center of the large mounting bolts.

Thanks

Frank,

I'm not sure which of the dimensions you're asking for. The parallelogram linkage is 35-3/4" x 13-0" on both sides of my 1979 pop-top. If it's precision you need, you might want to get measurements from several boats to see of they're consistant.

It's the length of the aluminum struts, it sounds like 13", thank you. The 89 struts are 10.5", that missing inch and one half means the struts on the CD pop-top kit will not compress far enough to cross vertical as the top moves. It would seem I have a spare kit. Thanks again.
