Re: Bestop bows
All four are the exact same, since you have one then you're in business. Use it as a template.
They are joined together at the top by a slug that you would need the measurement for. My memory would say that the slug spaces the bows about 4? apart. You could once you get the bows made you could always position them in place and measure the distance you need to make the top flat. |

Re: Bestop bows
Here's some pictures of the hardware. You can see the slugs in the first picture, maybe you can try to reference the scale based on some of the other components.
