However, I didn't dampen mine. What I did do was this. First, I put the rear metal strip in place but with just a few screws and turned the screws in only far enough to hold it. Then I made sure the metal bow was open enough on both sides to slip over the cardboard. I put the bow on the rear piece and clamped it on the cardboard. Next, I sat on the seat withthe cardboard on my lap then raised it over my head and pushed it into the rear metal strip. I checked for fit and tucked things in on the sides. Finally, I pushed the front piece into the bow and fit it in the front, tucking things in. It wasn't as easy as it sounds but it wasn't really hard, either. One other bit of advice. Don't do this on the hottest, most humid day of a Tidewater Virginia summer without a trace of a breeze blowing like I did.

So far I've stripped out the rock hard door rubber and removed the old headliner, prepped and sealed the roof with rust encapsulator and installed heat/sound insulation on the roof. I just need to install the replacement headliner and window lace, which I already ordered from classic parts. I've been reading up on install advice on the stovebolt site and previous posts here. Anyone have any advice on installing the headliner? (besides using a windshield install tool and dampening the cardboard to make it more flexable) I've heard headliner installs can be trying. Any any advice on installing the new door rubber into the channel on the cab? I thought at first I would try to slide it though the length of the channel because it seems to be too wide, but it won't go in easily, so I think I am going to get it into place and try to jam it in. Any special tools for this job? Any help appreciated...I'll let you know how it turns out. -cale owensboro ky 51 1/2 ton [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Ole Chevy and GMC trucks rule!
