28 sport coupe windshield question
I'am ready to install my windshield. Does the hinge go on the w/s frame first, or do you install the hinge & slide the w/s onto the hinge? Also, where does the w/s gasket install, between the header & hinge, or between the hinge & w/s.?

Re: 28 sport coupe windshield question
If the sun visor is on the car, you must put the hinge on the windshield frame and install it together. If the sun visor is off the car, then you can slide the windshield frame into the hinge with the windshield in the horizontal position. It either case a helper is very helpful. Also, the gasket goes between the header and the hinge but many times the gasket is too thick and the windshield doesn't close correctly.

Re: 28 sport coupe windshield question
hinge goes on the windsheld first and the open it and install with about 6 or 8 round head screws approx. 1 in long...dont forget the rubber seal goes on top of the hinge and I lay it out and punch the holes in it first and then install. it is a two man job....good luck

Re: 28 sport coupe windshield question
I used the rubber seal on my 28 sports coupe. Ended up taking it out, because the windshield hit the gas cap if you open it. You need to be able to open here in the summer time. It gets hot for a long time.
