If you have an old Rangie 2 door you will be amazed at how much the turret moves from side to side withoout a screen.

I drove mine to a mate who had a welder, when I had a crack at the base of the A pillar.
Old RRCs depend on the screen for bracing of the turret and that is probably why the A pillar fatigue cracks.

And if it is set in mastic and held with angled strips of aluminium screwed to the frame?
