[TR] windshield removal TR6

[John Mitchell]

It helps to loosen the bolts that hold the bracket that the windshield 
posts fit into.  Without loosening them, it's impossible for the 
brackets to line up enough for the stanchions to slide out.  Also. some 
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
