The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Rear Window install

Hi,
The windshield on my '56 GMC 3/4 ton was a tougher task than I thought. This should be a rite of passage for stovebolters- putting in auto glass. The gasket was a bit tricky to put on, but it fit well, and the string idea sounded easier than it was. I stopped the install when the gasket slipped off the glass, but we were close! The rear window is also for another day. I remembered two things from this forum- 1) its supposed to be fun(thats why I stopped) and 2) carefully slap the glass into place. One can't get leverage for a push up on a step ladder.
