Can anyone help me I have no clue how to get this gap out of the soft top. It's a quadratop and the factory frame and door surrounds. It's only the driver side that has this problem. Thanks in advance

Where is that gap? Is that the front header seal?

If it is, your header seal may need replacing.
 
That is a pretty serious gap. I don't have any experience with those soft uppers but I hope you find a solution soon. I have factory door surrounds if you end up needing them replaced. They are folding so easy enough to ship if needed. Shoot me over a dm if that's the issue. Wish I could help more

if that's a gap between the upper edge of the door and the door opening all you have to do is..

open the door
put your knee in the middle of the inside door panel
pull the upper edge of door towards you
repeat till you get the best fit

unfortunately that's about it for the adjustment in that area

I noticed on mine after I took the door skins off the frame to clean it up that if its not fitted on the frame correctly it wont seal properly when the door is closed...failing that maybe the rods that go into the top of the doors are bent?

just take the upper door with one hand at the top rear of the frame and the other at the lower front and give it a twist...adjusting the doors is like making love..can't be afraid to grab it and move it around a little

It might help to play some Marvin Gaye or Barry White while your moving it around a little lol
