Hey folks,

can someone point me in the right direction to some windshield frame replacement links?

Does the new frame need to be welded in or can it be bolted?

Thanks!

Wild Horses carries a cool stainless version with the glass moved up 1.5" and the wipers moved to the bottom for better visibility. They call it the "View Finder" and while very nice, is not for the faint of wallet.

If you are buying a new windshield frame it usually will come with a hinge welded on then usually they just get bolted to the cowling. Some fiberglass ones require bolting of both sides of the hinge. I wouldn't worry too much as long as the top end of the frame is secure some how by either the hard top or links to a cage or something.
