What windshield frame to get?

[jfrabat]

Hey, guys, I need to replace my windshield frame, but so far, the only place I have found them to be sold is Quadratec (4WD only lists the fiberglass ones on their catalogue). Anyone know of any other sources for these?

Mine has 2 big old rust spots and I want to replace it with a new one (one of those rust spots is actually now a hole in the front of the wind shield frame!)

Look on eBay or call some junk yards.

Corrupt, thanks. Do you think it is worth getting a used one? Sometimes the rust starts on the inside, and you cannot see it... Besides, the one on eBay says about $100 on shipping, which means about $160 for a used frame, while Quadratec has a new one for $165 (shipped).

Anyway, I'll keep looking on eBay to see if I find one I can pick up...

Jeep Rebuilders in Denver. They had to order one for our '93. $150 + shipping.

We were able to rebuild our frame, though...

I have replaced my windshield frame 3 times now (damn off camber tree in the way BS....and yes, now I take the windshield frame off for wheeling) and I have yet to pay more than $50 for a rust free frame with glass. I find them on craigslist, usually people parting out their junk.
