Mitsubishi VS60601 Picture problems

Mod # VS60601, Picture has a bow up on the bottom, Bow down on the top,( kinda like an hour glass turned on its side). This happened during an electrical storm.

 The convergence is way off, but I figure if I get the bow out maybe the convergence will be ok. Or will the convergence chips cause the pic to bow. I looked at it in the cust home, and did not get very far, Hard to work on the floor. Can someone point me in the right direction . Maybe a voltage thats missing or something

Thanks Charlie

Your description sounds like

Your description sounds like conv ic. Inspect the chassis boards area directly below the crt rack for coolant leaks.
Do NOT try to adjust convergence before replacing the ic's.
You might possibly get by just resoldering the ic's if you find obvious (w/magnifier/loupe)bad conv ic solder. Inspect and meter all the return resistors in the same area.
I think you have the VZ4 chassis, there is some repair info on the web you can search for, using VZ5 or VS-55601.
