Windshield and rollbar rake !?!?

[krausewich]

Hey ALl,
I'm looking to find what angle to rake the windshield at. I'm hoping that someone has an angle dial that can make a measurement of the side post. I've already seen 35 and 45 degrees... I'm looking for a Contemporary measurement. Those ones had a huge rake! Also, would you happen to know that correct angle on the rollbar? Please include if the measurement is off plumb or horizon.

Thank you
Mike

Windsheild brackets are at 55 deg to the horizontal, windsheild centre is I believe 45 deg. I think the roll bar is only tipped back 8 DEG. Get the best looking picture in Bobs line up and just measure an enlarged drawing.

Hi Mickmate,
Would you be able to tell me more about Bobs line up ?

Thanks,
Mike.

That is the link that Strictlypersonl posted for you with all the good profile shots. Sorry I just happened to know who he was. You should know that he is the nerdy little computer geek Engineer for ERA. What he doesn't know about Cobras and suspension design isn't worth knowing! Luv ya Bob.
