Wrangler Windshield Measurement
Improper windshield
adjustment will result
in poor fitting top and
doors, causing looseness or undue strain on the top. Install Windshield Brackets –
Wrangler/YJ Only
Under most circumstances, the wind-
shield of the Wrangler will not require
any adjustment. If your Wrangler windshield should
require adjustment, this adjustment should be per-
formed only by an authorized automotive mechanic
using a special "Tamper-Proof" Torx head tool.
