What was found
LT WINDSHIELD WAS BEING CHANGED DUE TO HEAT ELEMENT FAILURE. DURING REMOVAL OF THE CENTER-POST, IT WAS DISCOVERED THE BOTTOM 2 HOLES IN THE CENTER-POST WERE OVER COUNTER BORED BY THE FACTORY. THIS CREATED A LIGHTNING HOLE AROUND THE FASTENERS, THUS PROVIDING ZERO SUPPORT FOR THE LOWER PORTION, (ABOUT 5 IN) OF THE CENTER-POST. THE ONLY FIX IS TO INSTALL AN NEW CENTER-POST FROM MFG. THE NEW PART COMES WITHOUT HOLES AND TAKES A FULL DAY TO DRILL AND FIT; IF YOU CAN GET A CENTER-POST FROM MFG.
