    Help with windshield frame hinges

    And from some online research it’s looking like I might need a new tool for this last bolt, an impact screwdriver. So I guess until I get one I’ll just keep spraying/soaking it with PB Blaster. More udates, though far and between, to come.

    Again, thanks all. Now I have a shopping list to work with: -Impact Wrench -PB Blaster -Mapp Gas -Anti-Seize -Patience :rolleyes: @Pman, when you say "carefully placed heat", please specify. Wouldn't it be as simple as direct heat to the individual bolts or is there a better or more...

    Help with windshield frame hinges

    All great advice. Ugh and I probably am overthinking this. Thanks for the replies! Impact wrench, PB Blaster, Mapp Gas. So second inquiry, are any of the bolts on the windshield frame hinge held on by a nut on the inside of the frame that tends to turn with the bolt?

    Does the YJ Deserve a Star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame?

    How about the 87' Wrangler YJ used in Power Ranger S.P.D. It seems like they use a YJ in all the different versions of the Power Rangers.

    What ytradio said, easiest things first. I'd start with the flasher in the fuse box.

    MacGyver and his 87' Wrangler.

    What did you name your YJ and how did you decide on it?

    I call her the "Red Dawg". The reasoning behind that is one, 1. she's red and 2. when I got her in 95' my favorite beer at the time was Red Dog Beer. Still wish it was around, the beer that is. The "Red Dawg" Jeep is indeed still around.

    I have the OEM top with frame, but I like the look of frameless, but I do like going completely topless too. I appreciate the information and your take on it. Mahalo!

    I'm willing to bet we've passed each other on Hwy 9 or I-5. YJ sightings are about as common as JT of CJ sightings lately, which isn't very common compared to TJ's, JK's and JL's. So they stick out pretty easily and are way more distinguishable than it's Wrangler successors.
