it is not that hard if you have done it before.
removal tool for chrome, piano wire and friend.
take your time and prepare the frame good especially if rusted.
suction cups and a friend and it should be easy.

I am a glutton for punishment, I'll tackle most any job that makes sense in both time and money. Replacing a windshield is not on list of things I can say I have done nor do I plan to add it. Some things are best off farmed out to the pros. If you feel confident you can do it, by all means. Now...if you need a septic tank repaired...I can do that!

LOL on the septic tank. Thanks for the responses....I actually went to U-tube and watched many a windshield taken out and put back in.
Looks like the only diff tween now and then is that the windshield is just glued in now with urethane.
Surface prep, activator or primer and a good bead and you gotter done.
Seems the hardest part will be cutting out the old.
Thanks again peeps.
