In my PUP, some of the canvas - mostly at the bed ends - comes off the top track. I can push it and 'snap' it back in but when I close it up and reopen, it will be out again. Is there any way to prevent this from happening?

are you cranking the roof too high? Our popups always had screws in the at the ends. Could yours be missing?

Hello,
My Starcraft has a metal bar that screws into the side above the track to prevent canvas from popping out,see if there is holes in the
side above,if somebody took out the canvas previously they may have not reinstalled them.

Thanks for the input, definitely not cranking too high. I will check to see if screws/metal should be at ends or on top. If not, I probably could add them without too much trouble right?

Should not be too hard,I had to reinstall after repairing my roof,could most likely use plastic strips or wood and short stainless screws.
