Is anyone running the view finder and pro flow hood? I am wondering about clearance with the wiper arms and the top back of the scoop when opening the hood.

Thanks.

Wild Horses sell both...call 'em up on Monday. They'll be honest.

Maybe Jim knows, but I'm not sure if we still have a mockup in the building. In the old shop we had a fiberglass body with the Viewfinder and one of our fiberglass hoods. Not sure which one though.

If you're wondering about it hitting the wipers before it lays back against the top of the windshield frame, it's very possible. But during normal use, where it's either propped up on the stock hood prop, or on the gas struts, there should be no issue with that.

But again, I don't really know. Just shooting from the hip on this one.

Give a call Monday if nobody here has the combo.

I have. They have a bronco with the pro flow hood and another bronco with the view finder. The only thing they could do is take some estimated measurements and tell me it would be close. I was hoping a member here had both on the same bronco.
