Windshield Frame Size
Wondering what the difference in the size of windshields between an MB and CJ2A? Thanks!

Re: Windshield Frame Size
CJ windshields are two inches taller because after WW2 people started eating better food and suddenly grew taller, whereas before WW2, people were shorter. And actual grown ups were buying jeeps, not all driven by 18th year olds. A CJ inner frame is 13.5 tall but the bottom section is 9.5.
Or, 23 inches, vs 25 total height. If you do a search here, you will find all.

Re: Windshield Frame Size
Inner frames are same dimension as MB, except CJ-2A has a latch in the center of the bottom.
