dang...you guys are just too helpful,over here its the total opposite.
Getting the whole cab over would be a chore in itself but that section would fit in a box once cut out.. ;D

ok, so just pay me the shipping when i get it cut out. i have to finish painting a van this week, and try to find the time and make sure i have the tools to cut out what you need. pretty sure i do but the weather's been crappy and it's outside. so i'll keep you posted. i have to move them the end of the week so i have to cut it, it's just finding the time this week to get to it. so i'll let you know once i get it cut. i want to take out the windshield and keep it for a spare, but idk how to take it out so i was looking for a dummy guide picture how to so i could follow it on taking the glass out.

Great..if you can get that out without any hassle to yourself i'd appreciate it,vile is also gonna look over a cab for me so whoever gets to it first i suppose,but having 2 sections could be good just in case.
Your windshield removal is pretty simple..
Pull the chrome insert..start by removing the trim cover at the lower center and pick out one end,the n just pull it around the gasket.
Once that is out,go inside the cab and pick a upper corner of the gasket and push it over the windshield frame,on my cab once that corner was over the frame the rest moved pretty quick,usually you get half the gasket over and the glass will slide out to the side from where you started...
Or if you dont need the gasket...just cut the glass out..2 mins.... ;D

Nice one.. ;)
To save time if you look at the pics i uploaded the area i need is marked in red if thats any help..might be easier as it shows the cut straight on and from the side.. ;D
Good luck with it and dont go injuring yourself over it..lol

i'm trying to figure out the lightest way to send it. sending it to you ups will get costly if it weighs too much. i sent an atari to sweden and it cost the guy almost $200.
