    I need some help, I bought some new seals and for some reason I cannot figure out how to install the windshield in my 40. I saw that they are labeled RH and LH, but is that facing the truck or from the inside? Any help would be appreciated.

    The seals overlap in the middle and the chrome trim bolt holes need to line up. They are kind of tough to get right. Best if two people work on it together.

    Do a dry run first without the glass just to get the feel of how it all goes together.
    Then, with the glass installed in the rubber, use liquid dish soap to lubricate the rubber so it slides in easier using the "rope sash cord" method.
