Door Glass
 
Well our project "junker" is on the road. We are hoping to go on the power tour with it. It is a 54. We attempted to put new door glass in it yesterday & dayum! How the heck do you get it in there? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, time is getting short.

I can't get the door glass to fit inside of the slides. I tried to remove the vent window assembly & a few other methods but couldn't get it to fit.

I will try some more but I thought mabye someone in here would have some tips.

Don't know if the 54 is the same as my 59, but I just replaced all the door glass this evening. I pulled the vent assembly most of the way out and then slid the window glass in at an angle. I then slid the window glass and vent assembly down into the door. I wiggled the vent assembly into place. Then used the window crank to put the regulator up where the sash upper channel was visible. Then I instaaled the two retaining screws and I was done. Sounds easier than it was but it only took about two hours start to finish to replace all the glass.

When I've replaced window glass I've pulled the vent part way out too. I think you might have to pull the door unlocking handle and rod too.
