Need the depth of the windshield frame measured.

Post by landshark »

Can someone please take a quick measurement of the top of the windshield frame? the area where the seal sits for the hardtop/soft-top.

I just need to know the depth at the top of the windshield, ie Front to Back and the approx. center location of bolt holes if possible. assume they are centered.

I pulled up the model of my windshield frame. (I'm at work)

The depth of the frame (fore/aft) on my truck measured 1.444". The holes were centered, 0.722" from either edge.

Being is was designed in the 60's, my guess is that the target nominal was 1-7/16" (1.4375")
