1973 dart sport rear deck lid

Alrighty guys.. So I looked at the arms and it had the nut zert plates in there along with bolts!! I put my deck lid on and put the fasteners in and tried to shut the trunk.. was to far rearward. I loosened the bolts and pushed the lid as far back as I could and tried shutting. Still to far rearwards.. It has about a 2" gap from the bottom of the windshield and won't shut. The striker is hitting the panel the lock cylinder attaches too. I can't find any instructions to see if i'm missing any parts. I'll add photos from my phone later to give y'all an idea. Thanks
