Need some measurements - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Can someone that has a truck without the windshield in it measure the distance between the upper and lower lips? Still can't get mine to fit in the Blazer and am wondering if I am way out or what. Mine measures 20 and 5/8 pretty much all the way across between the upper and lower edges. Any help would be appreciated.

I have two cabs that I measured and came up with 20 3/4" as measured 4" from the posts on both sides. In the middle the measurement was 21" for both openings between the edges.
