There are a couple of illustrations of top mechanisms in the 35-41 parts manual which may be of some help figuring out where things attach although neither is what I would consider detailed. I remember a local guy that had a 41 with the vacuum top. Operation wasn't that great and required a hand assist to make it go up and down -- most likely due to seriously worn and leaking cylinders. I would expect at the least you will probably have to rebuild or reseal yours.
