Removal of Windshield Bracket

[PatriotRider]

believe me, I searched...

2014 RT: I removed the windshield and the 6 horizontal screws through the 3 arms, but pulling on the bracket, it isn't "giving" at all

any instructions or advice to remove - pull the bracket off

I'm going to paint it with satin black truck bed coating

thanx

Take a small round blunt object and force the sleeves to come out where you took the 6 screws out of, be gentle.

or put one screw partially back in each sleeve and gently tap the screw till you loosen the sleeve, then pull it out.

And ...................... before you paint it plug all the holes so that they don't get paint in them.

and replace the 2 little rubber bumpers Between the bracket and the windshield back where they were

that was it...thanx

those bushings were in there real good with an added a bit of corrosion and I wasn't willing to blindly put force on them

all holes plugged and bumpers de-rubbered

woo hoo

I always clean the outside of the sleeves with emery cloth and use a spot of oil before putting them back in
