Title: Cj7 windscreen glass dimensions
Post by: tris on October 31, 2014, 11:01:04 AM

Had a nice fella come today to get some YJ bits & he's desperate for glass for his CJ windscreen.
Can the glass be cut in somewhere like autoglass? If so has someone got the measurements or does someone have a source to get a screen from? Cheers

size does depend on what rubber he uses and year, original older screens and after market rubbers the glass is a few mm smaller than the hole and sits in line with the flange, on latter models with revised OEM rubbers the glass sits in front of the flange and is a few mm bigger than the hole.

reason for change was usual USA nanny state, someone had a screen push in at high speed so they revised the design.
