what hinge are you talking about on the lower windshield? on my 39 on the lower windshield you have two arms that extend out from the windshield regulator and attach to the lower windshield frame one arm connects to the drivers side with two screws and the other arm connects to the passenger side the same way. now on the top of the windshield is where the hinges are and again one hinge connects to drivers side windshield frame and the other side to the passenger side with screws. i hope i make myself clear if not get back to me and i can take some pics. good luck jim s.
