All that might work.... Or could make it worse...



Have to know what the connectors are made of. Since it bent.... I'm thinking its probably malleable.
What would keep the roof from not sagging back down after you remove the jack post? I think it's lost the integrity internally. I also think the factory could offer some insight into how or why the roof sagged. I'm sure they have the history and experience to have seen almost every possibility of damage over the 35 years of TM.
