Where is the window thread? Tks

 

[40's rock]

I had it bookmarked, but can't locate it under the new format. Butch posted a thread...several years ago, using string in the gasket window frame channel to pull thru the lip and set the gasket into the frame....

I also couldn't find the power steering install thread for the mini truck set up...but since I had already installed it on the green 40, was pretty easy. Except for keeping the smog pump and all emissions in place....got tight in there.

I will have to figure out where the bookmarks are.

My poor 85 4Runner needed a new rear axle housing,new front axle housing,battery holder,rear main seal,rear springs broke........so I took the winch, wheels and tires of it and sold it for parts

I will start over from scratch ,after summer so there will be another victim for next Roundup
