that's great, but there's over .100" difference in the channel width and the glass. It would be very difficult to keep the glass centered in the track, and at the correct angle. I guess I could shim it with some of my neoprene sheeting.

Got to find another passenger window now, broke the one you sent me Frank......... :faint:

Are you talking about the track at the bottom of the glass? If so 3m makes something called window channel bond , VERY strong stuff, made specifically for this very reason. we use it all the time. If this is what you need shoot me a pm and when I get to work tommorow I will get you a part number. The only downside is it requires a special gun. Looks like a double barrel caulk gun only smaller. If I remember the gun was very reasonable.

Here is a little info:

If your rubber cannels are too hard to reuse there is a product that I have used on my '57 Nomad vent windows. You lube it with oil and wrap it around the glass. Press it into the channel. The oil makes the material swell and creates a tight fit. I got the stuff at my local auto glass dealer a while back. I recall it being available in different thicknesses.

yeah, I believe that........ :lol: I tried three different times with different things to get it to slide all the way in; oil was the last try, and after sitting for a half hour or so I went to pry the glass back out like I'd done twice before, and it wouldn't budge. Ended up breaking the glass by prying too hard. :(

Hi I'm no glass expert but if the rubber you have will stretch maybe you can cut the strip you need,stretch it legnth wise hold it with some flat lip vice grips at the ends . Then lube the glass, then tap the track on and let the clamps go. Maybe it will give you enough room to fit the glass. Just a thought.

thanks for the info guys, it helps a lot.

Hey jody
 

I glued mine in on my 69. There is plenty of adjustment on the window that you should not have a problem. Just make sure you have in correctly in the channel from front to back.

I did a set on a 65 many years ago, and "glued" them in with black 3M 5200, worked awesome.
