wallytoo Posted April 25, 2014 Report Posted April 25, 2014 monkey, you'll probably have to install it from below the dash; don't believe it will fit through the opening. i got mine from roberts several years ago, and that's how i installed it. i painted the exterior with house paint (several coats), and put it in. it's worked fine for three or four years now, and still looks good. no holes, no sags, etc. the important thing is to make certain that the windshield does not leak in the corner. any leakage will quickly ruin the box. wally Quote
Monkey Truck Posted April 28, 2014 Report Posted April 28, 2014 I was actually able to "squeeze" it in through the opening. Tight fit, but got enough flex out of it to push it through with out any damage. I do have an issue with a leaky windshield, so I will need to get that fixed so this box will last. Quote
gramps1951 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Posted April 30, 2014 didn't you know your truck came with a leakomatic windshield installed ? Quote
John-T-53 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Posted April 30, 2014 Update - 2 1/2 years later, with no windshield leaks, the cardboard glove box is already warped a little. I guess just from moisture in the air. I should have coated the back with shellac or something... Quote
