Looking to add a windshield to my Gator, obviously the JD one is expensive.
Any advice?

Full or half? Check online...I bought a half windshield for my Ranger for less than $100 shipped from Cabelas last year.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

My neighbor rigged a golf cart top with windshield and frame to his gator. You can probably find it at a place that sells or repairs carts...works great.

Be aware that you might have to add a back to the cab area. My Rhino pulled so much dust into the low pressure area behind the 1/2 windshield that we had to add a canvas back wall to the cab area. Once that was done everything is great.

How well does it keep the wind off of you? I found full windshields on Ebay for $200 shipped but wasn't crazy about the top being curved up. they said I would have to do some alteration to my factory roof to install it. Uh no!

if its just winter time, get plexiglass to fit your gator and you attach it, using your own imagination to keep it secured.. This works great for me..
First... teach a child to love GOD.
Teach them second... to love their family.
Third, teach them to hunt & fish... and by the time they reach
their teens, no dope peddler under the sun...will ever have a
chance to teach them anything. ---Cotton Cordell

I bought mine on ebay which is a full but you can fold it down. I also have a roof that sticks over. The guy I bought from told me to get a measurement on how high I wanted to windshield to go. So thatw hat I did and I didnt do anything to my roof.
