    Default Regluing the passenger window

    Looks like the passenger window glass has separated from the track. Looks like they used some kind of epoxy to attach it. Where do I get this stuff?

    Local mechanics told me to use windo weld super fast urethane 080609 for window repair. They said when I use this stuff make sure everything is aligned correctly I only get one chance/.....

    Urethane glue should work okay too, make sure to clean the window and glide and then set it within the existant marks and let set 24 hours or whatever it says on the glue.

    once you get it cleaned up good you should see something, all else fails fill the seat with glue and carefully roll it up all the way. should self center for you pretty close.

    I am assuming there is an adjustment once the window is glued and set?

    i doubt there might be much forward rearward action since the window comes with the bracket attached before it is installed...look for them marks, has to be some dirt around where it used to sit.
