Re: Jeep Wrangler Opinins needed
So then what you are trying to say Lee, is that there are no actual
packages avaliable which offers the ideal options I am looking for?
They are just "moneymakers"? My wipers on the CJ-5 are fine whenever I
put the windshield down also...

Ok. How does it work on the CJs and YJ? I've seen pictures that show
really old CJs have the wipers mounted on the top of the windshield.
I can see how that wouldn't be a problem. I'd like to know how the
newer ones with the mounts below the windshield don't get in the way.

Re: Jeep Wrangler Opinions needed
The hood has two padded inverted loops that the windshield rests on with
a footman loop in the middle to tie it down to. These are set so the
windshield folds perfectly level so there are a couple inches of
clearance between the glass and the hood. This clears the wiper arm
pivots and arms just fine.
It's really cool running with no doors and no windshield on the bush
trails. But if you have a smart assed kid you are 'letting' drive, you
gotta watch out for low hanging branches... ;-)

Ah, I see. How convenient! Too bad Chrysler couldn't/wouldn't
maintain this feature.
