    I have been looking at a jeep for sale locally. It is a '60 CJ5 with a nice looking windshield and a brand new bestop. I am wanting to know if the windshield and top will fit on my '75 CJ. The jeep for sale also has some seats and other odds and ends I could use. Just wanted to make sure this is the right year windshield with the proper hinges that will just slide off at the right angle, etc. etc. Thanks for your insight, Chris.

    Assuming he hasn't changed the windshield, yes. '55-'75 tops interchange. Nickmil

    The top will fit, no problem. The windshield will fit, but the design is way inferior to what came on the '75. There's a page of windshield comparisons in the tech library.
