Troubleshooting:
Windshield closing without fully compressing gasket?
•
The Shims from step 9 can be removed if the windshield is closing without compressing the Gasket enough.
Removing these shims will make the Gasket compress more when the strikers latch on the Strike Plates
Windshield wobbling when closing?
•
This is caused by uneven Ball Stud Clamp heights or an uneven pulling motion, Re-check the Ball Stud Clamp
heights from the strike plate bolt as in step 18. Pull the windshield with a swift motion aligned with the middle of
the vehicle.
Windshield racking?
•
If your windshield is crooked, this is a result of the Rod Ends being out of alignment. You will need to remove the
bolt(s) that connect the Hing Half, Lower and the Hing Half, Upper. For example, if the top driver’s side is low, the
Rod End needs to be screwed in further, retighten the Jam Nut so the Rod End stays put. Reinsert the M8x50
button head bolt that connects the Hinge Half, Lower and the Hing Half, Upper. See Step 23/24 for reference.
