Article recommends replacing pivot brackets when replacing 5th bow

https://gm.oemdtc.com/3584/convertib...ge-gap-between...
Pivot brackets were redesigned to reduce damage to 5th bow.
LH pivot 22856131
RH pivot 22856132
I haven't heard anyone mention this before.
5th bow 22936377
Article mentions pins, clips and rivets for repair also

Article seems to admit water bags catching the top which caused the failures

I mentioned that in my post on the repair, I replaced the pivots, pins, clips, rivets, bow, and rear seal while I had the top off. You'll need a good strong rivet gun/tool by the way and pay attention to how the water bag straps are routed.
