    Location of holes for 1970 CJ5 windshield standoffs

    I meant to say Hardware


    Looking for pics or diagrams (or even accurate measurements) that show the layout of the holes for the windshield standoffs and such on the hood of a 70 CJ5. swapped to an M38A1 hood without all of the holes and I need to drill them prior to painting.

    so the m38a1 hoods have 2 windshield latches and the small low one in the middle is for the strap? the windshield must not have the standoffs that rest on the hood .

    Ok, just reached the point of trying to drill these holes and need to know the center to center distance between the holes of for legs of the standoffs

    follow on question... what goes in the holes about a foot back from the front of the hood? they are about as far apart as the standoff holes.

    That would be the ubolt (same part as the standoffs actually) that hooks into the little flippy catch on the windshield to hold the hood in place when you open it on a breezy day.

    p.s.- That'll be another $.38 :)
