Soft Top back window slide adjustment

[Mlarv]

It's a nice day here so I figured I would figure out how to open my soft top, and see how it all works. I took the passenger side read window out without issue. I went to the drivers side and it gets stuck on the little nearest the rear door. O got to looking at it and the plastic piece is out of alignment with the longer piece along the bottom. It is down a little. Is there an adjustment I can do or should I take it back into service and let them do it?

Old thread but just ran across it. Might help someone else. Little plastic wedge I made goes under the forward narrow bottom track pushing it downward.

Got a better picture or description where this wedge goes?

I thought about doing this, but figured I would let Ford figure it out. I went to the service department they wrote it up. They sent me to the body shop. It was the first Bronco soft top they had seen, so I had to show them how to take it off. They confirmed the issue, then took two big crescent wrenches and bent the bracket into the correct position. It took longer for me to get the top off and back on then the repair this. Repair
