Re: rear window replacement adhesive?

I have replaced three rear windows in my trucks and have never used any sealer, same thing with the windshields. As long as you get a quality rubber seal you should have no problem. When I painted my last truck I bought a new windshield and rubber and it leaked in the lower right corner, I pushed the rubber seal around and the leak stopped immediately.
You should be fine without any sealer. Who ever replaced the windshield in my truck before I bought it used sealer, everywhere he used it the windshield frame rusted, it took forever to scrape it all out and clean up the rust. I think sealer would actually make things worse by holding water and dirt in there.
