On mine the lowest point is where the front two latches bolt through the roof as if they were way too tight at sometime. the roof isn't floppy, I can walk on it and it doesn't feel spongy. Dunno. I don't loose sleep over it.

Thanks, That makes me feel better.
the major dip is right where the latches attach. my latch plates are also slightly bent which suggest someone was cranking the thing down super tight.

I really dont have time to mess with it for awhile so Ill have to leave it as is. I need to put a fan up there though so I'll have better chance to check it out when I start that project.

what my top really needs to a new rubber seal
