I started to lower mine a year ago and gave up when I ran out of time (had to be somewhere). I certainly could have gotten it down had I watched this video first. Great resource!

Wow! Thanks for posting...I didn't think it was so involved to do so! I saw a guy on the expressway with his down and was like "Wow! Cool!" but then I was like "Wow, he could get a rock in the eye!"

1st. Nice video.
2nd. It is really fun. (see pic <--------)
3rd. Once is usually enough for most people...


I left it down for 3 days (I think) when I did it. I will still do it, if I get the time, but it will be more difficult (and time consuming) with my CB whips mounted up there now...

Why does that guy have exposed tools on his hood?

Thansk for the video. I guarantee that one time during my JK ownership I will take down the windshield, now thanks to your video...I will know to set aside alot of time. Seriously, looks like a PITA...but I'll have to do it once.

I drove about 20 km off-road with the windshield down, and there is a problem; The windshield is too heavy for the metal gage (thickness) of the hood. I won't do that again
