I lubed the rubber seal with a rubber lube (Ruglyde) but dishsoap works as well. Then install (stuff) the cord into the inboard track of the weatherstrip.

Start at the bottom, in the center and go all around the perimeter, overlapping at the bottom.

After the cord is on, center the window with the weatherstrip in the opening. Shove the cord (at the bottom) through the opening first. Starting with the bottom, fit the flange on the top into the bottom track of the weatherstrip. You might need to peel the rubber from the inside by hand to get it started. Once the rubber starts to overlap the flange, from the inside of the truck, pull the cord. It will pull the rubber through the opening. It may only pull 1/2 of the rubber "lip" on top of the flange......that's OK. Pull the rope all the way around the perimeter. The sharp corners will require a little extra coaxing. Use your fingers to help pull the rubber in. Once you go a;ll the way around...it "sucks" the window into the opening. Then you can finish seating the seal. by pushing the window from the outside. ...

Take the old Ford window rubber off the old window and re-install onto the slider. I think it's easiest to start by installing the rubber on the pointed corners first. Top left and lower right in the pic. End with the rounded corners. Try not to dislodge the little corner pieces of chrome. They are fairly easy to put back, just adds extra work. ...

Once it is all around the window, shove out at the top. It takes a fair amount of force to get the window dislodged...at first. I started in the rear upper corner. Once you traverse the top....the window will almost fall out. If you run into subborn sections, simply peel the rubber back and push on the window. It helps to have someone on the outside to catch....just in case. I have done this before so I knew what to expect. ...

Get yourself some clothesline rope. A package of 100' was $1 at the local dollar store.....go figure.
I peeled back the rubber a little and stuffed in the line between the rubber and the topper. Not hard, just dirty. ...

Yep, new floor. Old one had cracked (frequent problem) and was fixed once.
Rust was coming and all the seatbelt nuts were gone......so it was time to replace....

Removed......pretty stable for no support. I measured a point on both sides of the roof before I cut it. I supported it with a cargo jack. I suppose if your anal you could weld a brace in but I knew it wasnt going anywhere. ...

All gone! Not much left holding the roof. The inner panel is continuous from the roof to the rocker. Pretty flimsy by itself.
Test fitting of new panel under way.........
