MG TD, with 2 free-standing metal top bows
253-600 LH Front, 253-800 LH Rear Side Curtain Frames

Reference JPG: 253-100 and 253-300 TC_37

Lay the side curtain frames on the ground as shown.
Things to look for

The upper rear corner of the front frame is almost a 90 degree angle (2B)
The upper front corner of the rear frame is almost a 90 degree angle (2C)
The upper rear corner of the rear frame is angular, not smoothly rounded (2D)
The dropped section of the rear s/c frame comes to a sharp point (2E)

To confirm the identity of the front frames:

On the front s/c frame, identify the upper horizontal piece. (2A)
Lay a tape measure along the inside edge of the upper horizontal piece.
Measure the length of the steel piece from outside to outside edge.
It’ should be 22 5/16 inches long. (about 19 3/4 inches would be TC, and over 22 is a TF)
Note: the distance between the top and bottom frame pieces (2K) is 9 1/2 inches.
This same dimension on the corresponding side curtain frame for the 3 bow top is 10 3/4 inches.

To confirm the identity of the rear frames:

On the rear s/c frame, identify the lower horizontal piece. (2F)
Lay a tape measure along the inside edge of the lower horizontal piece.
Measure the length of the steel piece from outside to outside edge.
It’ should be 17 ¾ inches long. (about 20 inches would be TC, and less than 17 is a TF)

The depth of the dropped point (2H) is 7 ¾ from the bottom of the lower horizontal bar (2F) to the end of
the point.
