47-55.1 Preferred method for rear glass install

[Jemezcrusher]

Putting glass in the 50 and the windshield went well. Roped it in as I don't think there is any other way. I watched Precision's" youtube videos and they were pretty good.

On the back glass they show to put some bedding sealant on, then the seal, then fit the glass using a ball and hook tool, then applying window sealant, then putting in the locking strip using a locking strip tool.

I only got to step three when the ball and hook tool tore right through to the lock strip channel.

My neighbor (experienced) says he ropes it in with the lock strip in place. I am not sure if you could put any bedding sealant in that way, or windshield sealer down in where the glass meets the rubber.

I was thinking I could rope it in without the lock strip, then sealant, then install the lock strip. That is of course, after I order a new gasket. It was Soffseal so will not get one from them as I think it tore WAY too easy.

Would like tips from you guys

Thx
