Replacing window glass

[Tim Way]

Hello all,

New member here. Looks like a great site!

I currently have 3 Suburbans in various states of health (see sig). I am building the '91 for a daily driver. The '87 and '85 will be sold when I'm done stealing parts for the '91 :-) I drove the '87 for 10 years and 180k miles before the engine gave up the ghost. The other 2 just happened to fall into my lap shortly after that. It's amazing what you can find when you're not looking!

I bought the '85 for the privacy glass. I figured that $50 for an entire truck was a ton better than $400+ that I was quoted for new glass. Talk about sticker shock....yikes!

I need to swap out the passenger's side rear door glass, the driver's side rear 1/4 window and the driver's side barn door window.

Any tricks or words of wisdom before I do this? I'd REALLY hate to break a nice peice of glass by doing something silly.

Thanks in advance.
