Hey guys! Quick question. I have a new rear window gasket on the way from Steele. What is the process to install the rear window? Do you put the gasket around the glass, and use the cord method to set the gasket over the body?

Or do you install the gasket first on the cab, and press the window in place?
Thank you!!!!!!!

paintman,here's a direct link to the pictorial guide I did some time ago,this is on an AD cab but the technique remains the same,I hope this helps.

Rear window installation using Claytonrite style seal.

If you click on the individual pictures there's a description too.
