Top Frame platform location measurements

Hi All,

Does anyone have location measurements for the top's frame mounts of a BJ8. My search has yielded no information for the proper placement of frame mounts on the forward part of the inner portion of the rear fenders. Platform positioning is critical in placing the frame, including height, established the correct operation of the frame and proper and secure coverage of the top.

Below is a picture of the convertible top frame mounting platform from Kilmartin.

Thank You,
Ray(64BJ8P1)
