Ok guys....as usual, I have a problem...
I attribute my constant run of problems to the fact that I drive an old Ford. But I will deal with these problems one at a time and continue to drive my old Ford because I wouldnt drive anything else!
But here's the latest one.
My back window is leaking. I know the usual deal is remove the interior panels, undo the nuts that hold it in, and gently push the window out....no problem.
Well, thats a lie. Problem. The nuts are seized to the studs in some cases and I cant get them to come out. The studs are just turning in the window molding. Soooooo.....What can I do to get the window out, and if I have to grind the studs off are there replacements available? Or do I have to get a new window?
Oh, I forgot, a new window is NOT an option because then I'd have to get new TRS stickers....and I'm broke. So in that case I think I'd just silicone the piss out of it and put the window back in, and then strap it tight with a piece of plywood while the silicone set.
Whatcha'all think?
Help please!
