Carefully! It you need to peal back the seal on the outside and push the window in. Start at one end and then work along the top or bottom. Then it should just slip out with the seal on it still. I have done it on a few windows, just don't use metal tools against the glass. It is tempered so its fairly strong.
Good luck.

I have a 3 finger OEM toyota clutch, flywheel, and throwout bearing sitting in my Garage was close to $600 new less the flywheel. The motor spun a rod bearing within 5000 miles. Willing to let it go for some cash (cheap) or trade.
jujfalusi@mac.com
I went to a chev motor so I will never need it.... but I couldn't just throw it out.
From the look of the info in the following thread it should work fine in yours.
[QUOTE=Poser;3728313]This information is covered very well in THIS THREAD <---- this is a link

Do you have a 4spd or 3 spd? I think the 3 finger clutch was for a 3 spd and I don't know if it will work with a 4spd. Bikersmurf what did it come out of?
Looks good but a little advice: trim your U-bolts before you go out wheeling... You'd be amazed at what bitch a log is with 4 u-bolts dug into it!

It came out of a July 74 fj 40 with a 4 speed transmission and an F Motor (all stock).
I'll have a look and see if i've got the clutch fork as well, although I recall it being very similar to the 2F clutch fork.
I've also got a 2F flywheel to compare it to or for sale/trade if someone wants it.

Hmmm... I think you will at least need to bolt it an F clutch, its dished out in the middle. Give er a shot though!

I've got both and F and 2F flywheels. 
The F flywheel, pressure plate, and throw up bearing are all from my 74. They were removed shortly after installation when the F motor spun a rod bearing.
The 2F flywheel was from a 77 fj45 I parted out 15 years ago.

No, all that shit from a F engine and a 4 spd...
A little clarification on my part here, I meant to say flywheel instead of clutch my last post. A 3 finger clutch needs to be bolted to an F flywheel that is dished in the middle. Sounds like it will work with a 4spd bell and fork etc.
