Ambulance Back Door weatherstrip Glass Installation Question (1 Viewer)

[yotamaster]

Hi Guys,
Just purchased some new weatherstrip from City Racer for my rear ambulance door windows.
Was wondering if anyone had directions or tips on how to replace the weatherstripping on the rear windows?
Thank you,
Sean..

Do yourself a favor. Get a helper before you start. Use a heavy string or some small diameter chord. Install just like a windshield. Be very liberal with windex and spray the inside of the weatherstripping and the window frame. Line up the stripping and the glass in the bottom of the opening the best you can seat it with the chords wrapped around the stripping with the ends at the bottom and inside the truck (or at least back side of the door). Have someone press on the outside and pul the chord up and around the window until it's in. It can go one of two ways. Fast and easy, or slow and troublesome and frustrating and temper tantruming.

You can do it!
