Man, bum luck Matt
Hope you find a good cheap replacement, that auction looks good.

Alright.. I had my truck backed up to my barn.. I was unloading some engine parts off our big loader. Dad comes over with some of his friends and they want to shoot some pidgeons out of the top of the barn. So they send me up. I ask my dad for my 20ga. shotgun..

Climb up top and start shooting them.. they fly out cept one. It musta been the simple pidgeon cuz it couldn't fly.. so I walk up and go to blast it.. (Note that the bird was 2 foot from the wall. And my truck was on the other side.)

Bam! Bird dead and there is a 6 inch hole in the barn.. and my truck glass looks funny.

So I look down and dad gave me a 12 gauge instead of my 20 ga. I think it cost $400 to replace mine.

Thanks dad!

There were a couple parts trucks in craigslist not too long ago. I'll do a quick search. Paying someone for shipping might be tough though.

Dude that sucks. I had that happen with a round of wood on my Ranger. Bounced up and nailed the rear window. Luckly we had glass coverage on it. Didn't cost me a dime. Except for 7 bux extra a month on my insurance policy. Heartford offers the same thing. Kind of expensive, but they are quick on everything, from claims to window replacment.

Matt, that sucks, but thanks for the reminder. I'm always chucking wood in the back when out camping. Note to self: Be carefull. At least you didn't shoot your truck (only kidding)!

Matt, I got to run out tomorrow and there's a salvage yard down the road, I'll pop in there tomorrow and see what they got. Hope we have better luck, tried to find Jim's center caps for his truck to no avail. If they got it and the price is right, we'll work something out, I'll let you know. Also, Adam0331 and strokersace are parting out some trucks, you could shoot them a PM to see if they got it, just a thought.
