[Tigers] Windshield Frame

[Larry Allbritton]

Hi Jim
  I removed my frame a few years ago to paint it and install a new windshield.  During that process I must have had that frame in every position including upside down.  Those nuts float a little in a capture fixture that keeps them in place.  I had no problem putting it back together other than getting the windshield in.  
   
  Good luck

I'm nearly finished stripping everything off Tigger prior to his date
 with the
paint shop.  My question concerns the windshield frame.  The rearview
 mirror
and top latches screw into floating pieces inside the frame.  Can these
 pieces
move laterally enough to cause a problem?  Do I need to keep bolts in
 them to
keep them in position?  Or is there movement limited enough to stay
 put?  I'd
rather not learn the hard way.  Thanks.
