Question 1

How to remove and install windshield glass on Toyota 4Runner?

Accepted Answer

Begin removing windshield glass by taking out the roof headlining assembly through steps that include disconnecting all pieces like the front Weather Strips, assist grips, front pillar garnishes, visors and their holders, plus the roof console box assembly. Use tools to disassemble both front wiper arm head caps along with wiper arms (left and right) to remove the inner rear view mirror assembly and cowl top ventilator louver. Cut off the windshield moulding from the outside parts (LH and RH) and outer upper moulding by using a precise knife approach that does not harm the car body. Disconnect the deicer connector when removing it. Put a fine piano wire inside the vehicle while passing it between the glass and body. Secure both ends onto wooden blocks then insulate the vehicle's exterior with tape. Move the piano wire through the vehicle's adhesive and stoppers to cut them before taking off the glass with the suction cup while keeping most adhesive in place. Remove glass damage using glass scrapers and repair all stickers before wiping the rim edges with white gasoline following the scrape. Apply Primer G to the installation part of new windshield glass No. 2 stoppers and wait three minutes for drying before installing two stoppers to the glass panel. Put two fresh stoppers on the vehicle body to start installing windshield glass No. 1. Apply Primer G to the installation zone on the new windshield dam and let it dry before putting in place two-piece double-sided tape at every dam location except the stopper positions. Before setting the outer upper moulding apply Primer G on both the glass edge and contact surface. Smooth the contact surface of the vehicle body with windshield adhesive still in place before you put the glass in position using a suction cup while checking for smooth contacts. Before installing the glass remove it and apply Primer M to the exposed body of the vehicle followed by coating the glass edge and surface contact with Primer G. Load adhesive (Part No.08850-00801 or equal) into a sealer gun with this ready insert the cartridge nozzle and apply the adhesive to the glass surface until complete. Put the glass in place according to markup lines then push it along the edge and trim away remaining adhesive. Verify any leaks then use auto glass sealer on the hardened adhesive.

Primer G application begins the windshield glass installation process with the No. 2 windshield glass stoppers where minimal primer usage is required for at least 3 minutes of drying time before wiping away extra primer. After placing two new No. 2 stoppers on the windshield glass the installer must apply Primer G to the retainers before installing two new retainers. Afterwards you should position two new No. 1 stoppers to the vehicle body. A mixture of Primer G goes onto the moulding area followed by installation of a new moulding. When using the adhesive dam you should first apply Primer G to its installation area before the liquid dries while you install a fresh adhesive dam against the ceramic notches. Install the windshield glass assembly by using a suction cup on its contact surface and checking alignment of matchmarks before removing it. First apply Primer M to the vehicle body section where the adhesive will not be placed followed by Primer G application on the adhesive area especially around the ceramic notches. Use TOYOTA genuine windshield glass adhesive or equivalent and apply it within the prescribed period after cutting the cartridge nozzle. Place the windshield glass assembly while lining up the matchmarks and apply gentle pressure along the rim until the stoppers are in the correct position while checking the overall clearance. Slight pressure on the front side of glass requires the possible use of a scraper to modify the adhesive. Use adhesive or equivalent to secure the glass frame with protective covering before the adhesive reaches necessary hardness. Also avoid operating the vehicle during the minimum application time. Inspect the leaks by applying water from outside after adhesive curing. Additional adhesive may be necessary when leaks are detected before removing protective tape.

How to remove the windshield glass on Toyota Tacoma?

Accepted Answer

A car technician should start windshield glass removal by unplugging the cable from the battery terminal. Start the windshield glass removal by taking off the front wiper arm head cap then proceeding with the front wiper arm LH and RH. Lift the front fender to cowl side seal from the LH side and duplicate the procedure on the RH side. First disconnect the cowl top ventilator louver sub-assembly from its mounting position along with the inner rear view mirror assembly. The next step involves detaching the front door opening trim Weather Strip LH with enough separation to remove the front pillar garnish before proceeding to the RH side. Remove the front pillar garnish from Regular Cab, Access Cab and Double Cab when applicable to the model. Proceed by taking off the roof console box assembly for Access Cab and Double Cab and then the assist grip plug with curtain shield Air Bag as well as the assist grip sub-assembly for Double Cab. The removal procedure for the visor assembly LH applies first to Regular Cab and Access Cab while covering the RH side next for Regular Cab and Access Cab and Double Cab. The process follows the exact steps for each assembly. Separate the visor holders from each Regular, Access and Double Cab model type. Begin by carefully cutting the windshield upper molding outer with a knife without damaging the body of the vehicle and afterward remove it. Protective tape should be applied to the windshield glass perimeter followed by piano wires threaded between the body and glass from inside before tying handles to the installed wires. Use protective tape to cover important vehicle parts while avoiding paint damage or decoration damage. Install a plastic sheet next to the safety pad and piano wire elements to avoid scratches. Cut through the windshield adhesive while pulling the piano wire then disengage the stoppers after which you can remove the glass using suction cups while attempting to retain maximum adhesive material on the vehicle.
