other dog Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Thanks Rob, we do have all of that stuff in stock!Hey Barry, what's the price on 2 windshields and the back glass? my windshields are scratched, probably from years of concrete dust, and have that "fog" around the edges, and the back glass is cracked.

The old rubber is tough to work with but can be done. Use a small bead of "bedding compound" around the pinchweld when setting the new glass seal to guard againt migratory leakage.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

other dog Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I just turn the hammer around backwards.......Roboh, I got it, thanks again. I put the rubber on first, hold the glass against it and drive it in with the hammer...sounds easy enough Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Rob Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 oh, I got it, thanks again. I put the rubber on first, hold the glass against it and drive it in with the hammer...sounds easy enough Don't forget to use 4 penny nails around the perimeter to hold the glass in place until the glue sets up. Drive them till flush with the surface of the seal for a professional look. Of course for the look of "class", you could use fillister head screws. You know me; Just trying to help.May come through the Roanoke area as I can get my itenerary settled. One more party on this list to visit, and retrieve parts from on my trip.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
