They did it in no time flat while I drank coffee. Cost me less than trying to do it myself. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 355 Member | | Member Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 355 | Yep we had the glass shop come to my shop, and install the front and rear glass. This was after we fooled around 3 times wit the back one. We bought a rubber for the back glass from Carter, and lo and behold it was junk and didnt fit the glass right. Our glass man and his help played around with it for about 45min, before I got out the one from Chevy Duty, which went right in. They used a suction cup to move the glass side to side and up and down. I think that tool made all the differance. | | | | | | Anonymous Unregistered | | Anonymous Unregistered | Hey fellas I guess you don't know about 36 windows having a frame with screws up till 1941 they had a pot metal frame holding in the window and rubber.
Best way is to have help hold the window with the glass and hold the frame up and put enough pressure to mark the rubber where you need to drill the holes for the frame screws to thru just make sure you have the window where it needs to be in relation to the opening then you can drill your holes thru the rubber and screw it in. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 313 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2003 Posts: 313 | Thanks OLtrucks, got it in this weekend. Not the easiest thing, but not the hardest either. One down, many things to go. | | |
