[FC] Rear Window

[Wild8bill at aol.com]

I think the "secret" is to install the gasket on the window, and then  
install the whole thing into the body; not try to mount the gasket to the body  and 
then insert the window. Doing it on a hot sunny day would help with the  
flexibility of the rubber.

gentlemen
I have Rampy back from the painters! I am reassembling  after taking the 
truck apart 4 years ago. I am asking for guidance on re -  installing the rear 
window of Rampy. The original glass is fine and I have a  new rubber gasket 
(which also came with a large tube of black silicone) from  our east Coast vendor, 
but no instructions. My Chevrolet assy. manual simply  states the parts needed 
and a note to "glue the ends of the gasket together  and install the seam at 
the TOP of the window, but no other help. My first two  attempts have almost 
caused me to break the glass. My first two tries involved  placing the gasket 
around the edge of the opening then starting the glass at  the bottom, slowly 
digging the lip of the gasket up over the glass working  around the edge. When 
I get close to the end of the process, the glass  suddenly pops out, and drops 
into the cab. Is the technique included in the  tech manual?
Thanks 
Tim
