Anyone know the size of the 4 bolts that go through the front of the windshield frame and are used to secure it to the top half of the hinges? _________________ 1951 M37 WOW, 1953 M37 WOW, 1954 M37 WOW, 1953 M38-A1, 1954 M38-A1, 1964 M151-A1, 1967 M151-A1, 1968 M151-A1, 1978 M151-A2, 1989 M35A2C, 1965 M416, 1966 M416, 1967 M416

Hi Cobra,
Maybe. Which vehicle are you talking about? I'd be glad to help, but my crystal balls are out being washed so I can't see what you got right now.
I'm guessing that you haven't looked in any of the tech manuals that are free for download on this site and you'd like one of us to spoon feed the answer to you? _________________ Ron D.

On my M38, those bolts are shown on page 291, Figure 18-4 of the ORD9 SNL, and described on page 298 as 1/4-20 x 1-3/8, hex head, internal tooth lock washer, steel or zinc plated. Took me about 3 minutes to find them. Hope this helps! _________________ Ron D.

Ron beat me to my little routine on the use of tech data. I am not usually as rough as Ron just was. At any rate we are both USAF MSgt's (retired)! My tour was 1966 to 1989.
I do see your two Willys jeeps are M38A1's. So you need ORD 9 SNL G-758.
You are looking for the bolts for item CC which are in section 1804. Jot down the part number of the hinge: 8392985 Now go to section 1804 and proceed to the letter H for hinge.
Voila the 4 bolts and 6 screws listed below the Hinge are the attaching hardware for that hinge. About mid page _________________ Wes K

Yea you got me for not posting that I was working on an m38a1.

Hi Cobra,
Yes, been there, done that. Look right at something in the manuals and don't see it. And they're known to have typo's and errors. Glad to hear you have and use them. My apology if my response was "rough". Sometimes I'm a tad too blunt like 60-grit sandpaper but will always help if I can. Glad you got your answer.
Wes is the 320-grit man in this forum. And I'm thankful for that!

Ron,
I think you were very generous with the 320, I'd give him more like 180 to 240!lol _________________ 51 M38 ,52 M38 ,53 Jeep PU ,62 M 37 ,68 M 715
