Is your 67-76 A-body windshield leaking ?
Here's the FSM way on how to do it. At least for the '73 and up Duster and Dart Sport. I imagine revised versions may be out there. This was on MyMopar.com.
What we've been calling the "pinch weld", they call the "fence". And I would add, that if you're using a new gasket, just cut the glass out with a razor knife. Otherwise, it seems cut and dried.
They use sealant, basically all the way around.
Be careful unblocking the drains. It's easy to go through the cowl and create a new source of leakage. "Ask me how I know". :BangHead:
I would say that the drain holes are not an "end-all" necessity to prevent leaks. They just help get the lower surface drained enough to allow better evaporation. But they would or could leak when the sealant isn't in the right spots. I say "could", because members have stated that they used no sealant, and it didn't leak. I did it once; it leaked like it was supposed to. This time, I'm using sealer, opened drain holes, and a Precicion Products gasket. I used a classic Industries gasket before. I have no idea if that was a problem.
My CLR7708 showed up today. When my new gasket shows up, I'll get to it. I'll follow up.
