Replacing Glass

[Photo1]

I broke the front right lower glass in my L5030 cab. Before I start, has anyone replaced this glass before? I can't tell if it is glued in or if it is in a rubber track, and if glued, what is the adhesive. Thanks in advance for any advice.

If you mean the front glass and not the door glass which fits in a rubber gasket with no glue, the front lower glass is glued in. I broke mine when I had a 5030 HSTC years ago. The transition gasket at the top is press fitted between the upper and lower panes. You'll be amazed at what the glass costs too. Not a cheap date.

I suspect any windshield adhesive will work. I got mine from the dealer way back then.

It's glued in with this:

11 bucks is a helluva lot cheaper than what I paid at the dealer if I remember correctly. I do remember that you need to clean ALL the old adhesive off and wipe the area where it goes with alcohol though (not Jim Beam either)... and let it cure after putting in the new (expensive) pane. I used painters tape and taped mine in and let it sit for a day or two.

I suggest you read thru this thread from another forum.

A guy found an after market glass supplier and was very pleased with their product.
