The roof sat back with a little jiggling and the use of a hand winch diagonally to square the top up. The repairs had spread the sides and rear outwards a bit but fortunately it has a substantially strong gutter. With the use of ratchet straps to put downward pressure on the roof I was able to bang wooden wedges all around to hold it in place. I then ran a speedfile over the roof to check for dents. I then pulled all the wedges out and lifted the roof back up so I could get a curved dolly underneath and dress up the last remaining dents.
