    well i need to replace my windshield and cant figure out what jeep i have. the top of the windshield from to the top of the hood is 25 inches but i have the windshield wipers mounted on the bottom and its a one piece windshield. best i can figure is its a cj2a. i need to get the windshield and new moulding so i want to make sure i get the right one. any thoughts on where to buy the windshield and moulding.

    Sounds like a 3a windshield. 2a windshields were split down the middle.

    well i called a local shop and they said they could match it by the actual size of the windshield itself. i know a lot of the older jeeps had a lot of parts interchanged on them.
