Window channels

70 F250. got the new window channel material as well as the two pieces that go at the bottom of the window. those I can replace. What's the trick in getting the front, top and side pieces in? do they need to be lubricated? the originals aren't out yet and they are pretty stuck in there. Halp!

Don't follow the directions on the back pages of the Dennis Carpenter catalog. It is impossible to install the pieces in that order.

Patience and creativity are the keys. I used a small amount of dishsoap when installing them on my '68.

I had my channel and wing window out for that peice.Easy.
As for the felt anti rattle peices,have patience.They can be a pain.Have a small pic set handy and put some electrical tape on the body around them if worried about paint.
