I need a set of stainless hood hinges for a 59 cj-5, and most of the listings say they only fit 76 - 95. does anyone know what will fit for sure so I don't have to go through all the trial and error. thanks for any info!!!

I'm pretty sure the original hinges let you remove the hood when it was held vertical so you may not be able to get them in stainless...you could always have the old ones plated tho....KeepJeepin'

You are correct because on my 1961 CJ5 the hinges allow for the hood and the windshield to be removed. I have not seen those available anywhere so I am glad my CJ has them
