SEATING TAPE! I could not figure out what that stuff was called. My service manual barely says anything about how to do this-- somebody smashed out my window and it's a real relief to find this. Thanks man.
@@carlosvelazco1975 man I hope you can help me!!! Okay so I followed your video (which was a TREMENDOUS help by the way) I got my drivers side back in & it’s great & good to go. However now the passenger side almost seems like it’s “shorter” side to side now & it feels like it’s like “under tension” if you will when I tried to install it back in the door. It just won’t follow in the vertical window tracks like it did before. Is it possible that I put the sash back on backwards?? I really didn’t think that I did but man I can’t think of anything else that might be wrong. I would REALLY appreciate any input you might have!!
So for the guys that are putting a window in where the old one was broken we are pretty much screwed at this point correct one more question would be where did you get the tape that the glass sets in the bracket
Don't know what he used but I found one source with varying thicknesses: bobdrake.com/collections/glass-setting-tape (I am not affiliated with this shop in any way, just what I am purchasing for my '72 Chevy windows)
Can you please share with us some info about the tape you used? I bought what I thought was the same stuff and despite pounding the jesus out of the window with a rubber deadblow hammer and snotting the sash and tape like crazy with glass cleaner and dish soap I CANNOT get it to seat enough to stay installed. The tape I found is just too thick - the edge that started to fully seat was causing the tape to split.
well that was useless. You never replaced the glass just the rubber that holds it to the metal slide rail. I thought you were going to show how to replace the door glass into the door.

There different glass thickness, thin glass in thick glass sash requires thicker tape ,measure your glass then sash opening the difference between the measurements divided by two willbe how thick of tape you will need (remember you want a tight fit )

Glad I could help.
how did you choose the tape thickness that you bought?
I heard some barrington Levi in your reggae playlist
OK I'll give my '84 k5 a shot
I always thought it used a strip of adhesive or glue .. learn something new everyday
No sir

A little late watching this but how can you get the proper measurement of where the new glass sits in channel if the original window was broken
Very good video, but the title should fit the subject material more accurately. And we all want to know the dimensional thickness of the seating tape.

Why did you replace the glass of it wasn’t broken or cracked?
Generation Oldschool Español because it was 45 years old and weathered.
@@carlosvelazco1975 I just ordered all new glasses for mine also

As the title states “replace the glass”
Where do I get the glass tape ? What is the dimension of the glass tape?
just got new glass for mine this month . where you get the tape ?
I’m needing the same thing

Can anyone tell me if a 1976 C10 door glass will fit in a 1984 C10?
I bought the sash and tape from LMC and the glass fits loose???
There different glass thickness, thin glass in thick glass sash requires thicker tape ,measure your glass then sash opening the difference between the measurements divided by two willbe how thick of tape you will need (remember you want a tight fit )
Where can I get the glass tape?
Who is the reggae band at the beginning
Sounds like a Polynesian band
What's the thickness??
You didn’t replace the glass… you put the track on
Yes we did. All glass is new.
Cant see anything you're doing.....
