18x33 oval above ground pool wall and top problems

[bjones]

I am new to the pool world. We recently bought a house with a pool that has been unused for years. We are wanting to start using it. As I took the old liner out I noticed that the straight side wall are bowed out at the bottom. With the install of the new beaded liner with the wall push back to where they need to be and also do I leave the top braces off while installing the new liner.. Any help would be great

Welcome to TFP.

The side walls are suppose to slightly bow out. If you have a beaded track, you do not have to remove the top rails to install the liner. Are you sure you have a beaded track?

It has a track about two inches down all the way around the pool.

Then you do not have to remove the top rails. Just hang the liner n fill.

Thanks for the help!
