rear window removeal

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to remove the rear window from my donor cab. It is a small window and I have already removed a small piece from the center on the outside part of the rubber. I tried pushing the glass to the inside of the cab, but stopped just in case I was wrong. also wondering if anyony knows how to remove the electrical bulkhead pulgs from the firewall.

Re: rear window removeal

I just used a blade and cut the rubber off the window and it came right out.

On the electrical bulkheads...I cut the rubber ring that goes around it off. That was a pain in the ass to get off. Good luck.

i take them out by putting a strong string or a thin rope around the rubber on the inside of the truck tighten it up and it will compress the rubber and you can push it out but have someone holding the glass on the outside so it won't fall and brake

Like David did
You're probably getting a new one anyhow
reusing that hardened old one would seem to just be a PITA

I always cut the rubber and use a new one.

Re: rear window removeal

Thanks for the help everyone, the reason why I wanted to know the proper way to take out a window is because I am trying to learn the details too. So many times I would have just cut it out, like it was mentions, but in my new way of thinking if I know how it came out it will be easier to understand how it goes back in. The theory of building motors or installing and labeling things while disasembling, I want to be aware of the details and make sure it is done right the first time. Thanks again for the encouragement.
