Need a CJ/YJ measurement

[xtremexj]

Hopefully someone can give me a hand here. I need someone to check the angle of their windshield frame for me. I'm trying to mock up a tub and I have the windshield frame set where I think it should be, but one side is about 68* and the other is 65*. I obviously have a bent hinge, but I need to know which side is correct in relation to front of the tub. Thanks.

My old cj7 has 68* on both sides...

That just means it's bent on BOTH sides.

My Jeep is 68* too, but my garage is heated...




I found the best way to align the windshield was to toss some doors on it.

I have never owned a YJ, but on a CJ the angle should be slightly adjustable by the brackets that hold it in the upright position. Should be more than enough to even it out side to side. BC is right about putting your doors on. Mine needed adjustment when I converted from a soft top to a hard top and then again when I went back.

Thanks for the responese everyone. I got a hold of a factory hard door to measure and the angle on the leading edge is 67.5*. So you guys who said 68* were pretty much bang on. Thanks for the help.
