It helps to loosen the bolts that hold the bracket that the windshield
posts fit into. Without loosening them, it's impossible for the

PB blaster or other lubricant on the post will help. You can also put
a nut on the stanchion and give each side a wrap with a hammer to get
things moving. John Mitchell 76 TR6 72 Stag
