Default Re: Windshield hinge movement

Sometimes it is easier to try for side to side motion of the hinge before trying for an open/close motion. Rust and dirt can really build up in these hinges. Side to side motion gives the crud a place to move where compressing the crud by trying to open it will yield no motion. I have a couple of times in the past had to clamp the body part of the hinge in a vice and lay a block od wood along the edge of the windshield frame and tapped the w/s frame sideways. Be careful not to bend anything. Rod
