41 pick up windows
Hello all. At the point with my wife's 41 where I need some info on the Windows. I have a local glass guys that does our shower doors that can cut these windows for me. I understand the 41 is different than my 47. I need templates for Al the glass guy. How thick are the Windows?
Thanks happy new years |

Re: 41 pick up windows
Are they cutting safety glass? I bought a full kit off a vender on epay. Wasn't a bad price, fit great.
Oh course, spend your money local! Not sure if the company I bought off epay was close to me, it was inside the U.S. though. think this is them I can go through paper work, ordered coke-bottle green (other then the front windshield. If you are interested I can look it up. Quite a few online now. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1937-1938-1...CRUg:rk:6:pf:0 Wish I had a full templates for you. Cab 38-41. Maybe someone will add and help better then me. . Last edited by Tinker; 01-01-2019 at 11:34 PM. |

Re: 41 pick up windows
Man Tinker that's a good site. Wish we had a place like this in NZ when I did my glass. I used old glass as a pattern but even using a pattern you can end up with the cut glass being either slightly too big or small. I found my windshield cuts which were taken off old glass (not the original) was not sized quite right as a result I had trouble getting the inner escutcheon to mate up to the seal properly.... I had to find some longer screws to reach the holes in some places. Looks good now but was a"chore". Like you I had a slightly green tint done but for all the glass. The price looks good too. I paid nearly $1K NZ to have all my glass cut (safety for side windows) which equates to about $700 US.
Backlight is the original clear as it is curved for a 48 car GB

Re: 41 pick up windows
Back in 2005 I installed Sanders Reproduction Glass on the Tonner. Attached is a current quote for their product. Their product and service was excellent. I had heard that the business was sold a few years ago to a national auto glass company so buyer beware. https://www.sandersreproglass.com/or...line-template/

Re: 41 pick up windows
I have used samples for a '40 pickup of all the locations that I could, perhaps, lay on a sheet of paper and draw a template of each one if you can't do better.

Re: 41 pick up windows
I wish I had the original glass to make my own templates. Thanks guys for the experience with some good results. This gives me a great starting point. Now on to rubber seals

Re: 41 pick up windows
Check your PM’s. I have the original glass from the 40 tonner. Its my understanding that the 40-47 cabs are the same for the truck line excluding COE.
