Winshield swap?
I came across a great condition windshield from a 1970 Blazer, will it fit a 1970 GMC 2500? Anyone done this before?

Re: Winshield swap?
Yes. I R&R'd a windshield from a 72 GMC Suburban into my '68 Chevy C/10. Same part.
Rubber windshield grommets [gaskets] can differ cosmetically but fit the same. The difference is whether there's chrome trim or not. Not-- just fine. If there is trim, then some years differ. Not sure what year is the design change, but the old chrome won't fit a later gasket. and vice versa. The plain black rubber gasket works all years, '67 thru '72. A new grommet is a good idea. Aloha, Brah.

68orange, that's what I wanted to hear! I'm going with plain gasket, no trim. Getting parts out here is very expensive, and coming across parts in this condition are rare.

No Problem.
