Also .. The windows require a bit of adjusting (rear vertical track) as well
as the window height .. You can also adjust the rake of the window a bit to
make a better even seam between the winshield and vent window frame and the
back where the window meets the soft top .. This  affects the way the rear
of the window sits ... So in my expereince if adjusting the rake, adjust to
get the rear of the window as close to where you want it on the soft top
(back angle) .. Then adjust the windshield (which adjusts a bit) to get the
best fit .. Sounds complicated but is just patience and busy work ..... I
eliminated all rattles in my BJ8 windows with new parts and fettling ...
