After i got the old roof cut of at the pillars from the pick and pull i took it and started triming all the pieces of the inner and outer skin. This took the longest there is a lot of spot welds. the tricky part is the inner skin you have to bend one corner of the inner skin to get it to slide past the windshield pillar (dont worry you can straighten that out after you install it into your cab) i then just cleaned it all up put the inner skin in first clamping it in place and then welding up the holes that i had drilled to remove the old spot welds. then i put a large piece of sound deadner on the inner skin (alot bigger and thicker then the factory one) then i lined up the new outer skin making sure that the back of the skin were it meets the back of the cab was perfect and fit really tight because you can only weld in a couple spots here. I then took the roof off for a few minutes. Then using 3m's panel bonding adhesive (part#8115) i ran a thick bead all the way along the back cab seam then i put the roof on clamped the back of the cab seam in three spots one in the center through the dome light hole with needle nose visegrips and one at either outside edge.then i just welded up the spot weld holes ground my welds and primed it. There is one thing that i would have done different and that is i would have sanded the inside of the roof before i installed it because sanding above your head really sucks lol. Attached is some pictures during the process.
