Windshield install - gambled, and lost!
Yeah, yeah, I know.
Let the pro do it. Had the phone in my hand to call, and thought, how tough could it be.... it's the plain, non-chrome trim version. What have I got to lose? I did my F-100 and TR6 windshields no problem, and I popped the small rear glass in last week, no problem. Got new (Chevy Duty) gasket and old, slightly delaminating windshield, rope, soap and window stick. Followed 'junkyardjohn's' instructions from a few months back. Worked the bottom in first, started up the sides and .... 'CRACK' the whole lower corner has a neat little line in it. Now that I've stopped cussin', it's time to make that phone call....... heck, I really wanted a new windshield anyhow. BTW: Just looked at LMC's instructions for installation: 1. Fit your new window rubber to your cab first, then install the window glass. HUH? Has anyone tried it this way...Successfully?
