xuv windshield

jcmseven · Nov 18, 2009

The poly windshields will flex if the wind hits them while on the trailer at highway speed. They are unlikely to break, but will gouge the hood if one is not careful. Since the hood is color impregnated and not painted this is hard to notice but can happen. The factory optioned accessory windscreens, both the half and full (I have the half and prefer it) fit up better and really look nice--I would stick with one of those in the length of your choice.

This is the glass windshield we offer. It is hinged at the top, and you can see it in the open position in this photo to allow ventilation. It doesn't go all the way down to the hood, but rather a panel cuts back down to the dash so you can open the hood freely without anything to move out of the way first. We can set it up for both our own Poly Roof Kit and Header/Light Kit you see in the photo, as well as the Deere poly roof.

I've hauled this at interstate speeds with no problems, albeit full cab and loaded backwards on the trailer.

A lot of my dealers have commented on the short life span of the factory poly windshield due to scratching.

I'm thinking about getting your exact cab setup.. How do you like it? Is it good and water tight?

Yankeerider: We offer a wiper kit as a separate option. We have it for our roof, and the version for the Deere roof is available soon.

ORCM: The cab is great for poor weather conditions. Blocking the wind is about as valuable as keeping the rain off, especially if you have cold winter conditions. The cab has gasket material to seal up the doors, rear panel, and windshield. If you pressure wash it, you will find places for water to make its way in. But for keeping the weather out, you're going to stay dry.
