    Does anyone know who sells replacement windshield hinges for a '75 style frame? I can't seem to find anywhere. A related question would be can I just use a '76 windshield frame on my '75? They are easier to come by and so are the hinges. I would prefer not to go this route but is it an option?

    1. Your best bet is to search the forum here, I think someone mentioned a place that might have some but they're not made anywhere. Only used are available.
    2. Yes, it's possible to use a newer WS frame. Just be aware that the WS frame dictates the top and door fitment on the Jeep. See the body portion of the tech library for more.

    CJ freak, what parts are you looking for? I can get some upper ws hinges but I don't know about the lower. And they are not in as good a shape as I usually look for. But they are at least some. PM me if you are interested.

    I saw some early ws hinge parts in the.......willys overland catalogue? I remember they were quite spendy. SOmthing like 90 bucks a part. If you are interested, pm me..........
