can anyone tell me the height of the rear bow on an m38 summer top? measuring from the top of the rear body to the top of the bow. I have seen some measurement's on Google images. I want to make sure these are correct before I make new bows. the measurement I have seen is 30.5'' this leaves almost 4'' overlap of the rear Curtin.
thanks for any help.

Depending on how the bow is placed in the Jeeps body pockets, as there is some adjustment, and how the pockets may be mounted to the body (maybe a little crooked) can all add up and a could skew that measurement a bit.  I'd just be asking what the measurement of the bow is.
My M38 is at military/July 4th show for a few days, when I get back over there and if I can remember, I'll measure my bows.  Did you go ask this over on willysmjeeps yet?
