Does opening the top allow you to do individual bolt replacement with
no additional clamping? i.e the struts are fully extended and the
'lift' vector is almost vertical.

KK

3) Do NOT remove these bolts without clamping the
trailer top down and restrained from moving
forward. If you undo the bolts without restraining
the top, even on just one side, even just one bolt,
the gas strut will deliver you a nasty surprise
(as happened to me on the highway to Hobbs).
CAREFUL !


5) I'm designing a clamp to safely hold the top
during replacement of the hinge and bolts...
