[QUOTE="Hip, post: 764487, member: 16058"] lexan is more expensive than the regular glass but my glass is broken now so who knows. the reason my glass broke was like glen said i made it past the tree then the motor dies and on the 1" or so or roll back the frame caught the tree and flexed the corner of the frame forward. it held right until i got the winch cable almost hooked up then it popped. lexan would have not broken. i think i can make the frame with 2" A pillars which go will straight back and then cap them with the intricate shaped 1 1/2" top A crossbar. then the plan it to grind away any part of the frame sheetmetal until it fits into the space i made from tube. if that becomes too difficult then i might go glens route. only i want to maintain defrost. rocky gets all wet and foggs up my windows. like mike said my new A pillars and upper crossbar will be relocated to exactly where the windshield sits now. i plan on drilling thru the body and going right behind the dash with the A pillars. as it is now the cage makes it difficult to do any behind the dash work and the new setup will make that easy again. any one seen this done before on a heep? pictures?
