After assembling the two halves it was easy to mount each half back into the car.
Then assemble the cross bows and align
Once I have all the windows fitted in place I'll be able to do all the hood adjustments.
There are factory measurements between top bows.
These measurements aren't centre-to-centre, but from bow edge to bow edge.

When I pulled the frame apart I fabricated a bow locating gauge from plywood, which will enabled me to position bows back to factory specifications.
There are five ways to make top adjustments:
Bow No. 2 up/down adjustment
Side rail camber eccentric at balance link
Side rail camber set screw at hinge
Header to side rail adjustment (fore and aft length adjustment)
Frame bracket to body bolts (side to side adjustment)
