Alfredo , thank you so much for your time and thank you for the support, people’s learning more how your work to the right way , I’m very real fans , and I still learn and repeat all your videos in this 2024 this is my part time ❤❤🙌🙏🤝👏🏻
Man you take a lot of pride in your work. Ive wondered how i could use my wire feed tool on a wrangler, glad i know its an option now. Ive been using T-handles, which takes a lot of effort and time, plus its easy to slip up . Thanks for the video
Great job Alfredo. This is the kind of thing, where you just wish every person who worked on your car was this careful and meticulous. But you just know, most aren't...
I have been thinking of getting the spider. I just did a jeep yesterday with my cable knife. I cut from the bottom corner up across the top then down the other side. Then I tape top and then finish cutting bottom last. No scratches.
ive noticed the harbor freight pick tools lose their use very quickly. i know they are only $1 per set but ive had my snap on pick set for 3 years now and they havent broken. they work good as new and have really nice handles. id highly recommend them plus the snap on hook tool i use a lot. i have two and one that is dull for clearing the channel on door glasses works really well with a lifetime warranty
Trevor Pemberton I stopped using them. I been using the husky brand from Home Depot, also bought some from Walmart and turns out they much better quality then the ones from harbor freight.
Awesome work! I have a wrangler tomorrow. i may use my kong cut out tool. Did you relief cut to get the wire through or did you just push it through in the beginning?
Do you prefer the urethane cans over the sausages? Pretty much everyone I know uses the sausages, including our shop. Also a cool thing you should look into for these is a little tab that helps you set them and get the correct spacing between the car and the class as well as the pinch. Your jeep dealer should sell them, they are also in the latest Equalizer catalog. I can get you a part number if you want it, they are like a dollar for 4 of them. They are reusable and help you set it too. when I set solo I put a foam block, you could use anything box shaped and put it on the passenger side where the cowl would be, set the glass on that and set the drivers side. Then tape it and walk over and set the pass side. The box holds the glass even with where it sets in and is really easy.
Thanks for the tip. I prefer cartridges rather than sausage is less bulky and it's lighter. Is a little more expensive but better for the shoulders. Thank you for watching.
Nice job Alfredo, I going try to do the job myself around the following 2 weeks, Just comment: you did not add any links for the recommended silicon or the tools you actually used
Unless you plan on replacing the glass several times over it's probably best to have a tech do it for you (a good one that takes pride and care in their work much like this guy). The cost of the spider tool alone is probably more than you're going to pay someone to replace the windshield in parts and labor.
Alfredo...I've been the autoglass replacement industry for 35+ years.....Like your work my friend... I noticed you apply the urethane to the aperture and not the glass...Is this a personal preference, or is there a reason for doing so?
I noticed that windshield has no willy logos :(. I had a similar issue with non OEM windshields that safelite uses. Have to go to a dealership usually to get the real original parts
I use Dow line of products express & One urethane and 418 on gaskets . The 5504g could be use for priming glass when I need it to be ready in two minutes the clear glass primer takes 6 minutes to flash. For windshield with paint band one coat and two coats on windshield that don't have a paint band and also on flat laminated glass that doesn't have a paint band, also on encapsulated parts one coat only but first roughing the bonding area. Now on body scratches two coats of primer and two minutes in between coats. Thank you for watching my videos.
I took my wrangler to this garage to replace my windshield and they literally just broke the glass and took it off by force, scratching the top side of the car. And the rubber/ black glue or whatever that is is non existent, so it looks really dumb. Super frustrated about it, wish I had someone like you do it lol.
JK BLUE i use to work there at safelite. Breaking corner leaves glass on body of car which could scratch it. We where trained to use metal wire then hand wire it aka saw out with to handles with wire. Some guys may use their ezwire tool but most of us just handwired it out
Cold knife is even more nonsensical.. what if it's been replaced before and pinched? Handwire from one side to the mirror button, stop remove wire. Repeat process on the other side... pow, it's out. 25 min job
Man there aren’t many people left that value their work like you do. You’re awesome.

Great job Alfredo, would recommend anybody to take their cars to you. Keep up the great work 👍🏽👍🏽

Doing my first wrangler repair tomorrow and was happy to see that you had a video about it 😁 Many thanks for all you have done!!
Couch Tours good luck 👍 I hope everything goes well for you!
I wish you were in NJ. You take such pride in your work. Unfortunately I have to go to Safelite $$$ for my Jeep. I really appreciated this video.
Anthony Trombino thank you
NY is a no fault state so it should be free to replace if you have comprehensive coverage or even full coverage on the insurance
You have a lot of experience and it shows. Very impressive.
Outstanding job. Pride in workmanship and care about customer's vehicle. Wish you were on the East Coast.
What a great video! You sure take pride in your workmanship!
I always find your videos very helpful. Thank you for sharing!
Nick thank you for taking the time to watch my videos!
That was enough to let me know that I will not change my own windshield.
Man I love the WRD Spider tool, nice job!! P.S I have been installing now for 24 year.
I use 105 mld two inch pieces to center the glass then pull them out tape it. Nice job
I have been thinking of getting the spider. I just did a jeep yesterday with my cable knife. I cut from the bottom corner up across the top then down the other side. Then I tape top and then finish cutting bottom last. No scratches.
Can you please fly to Florida and fix my Jeep's windshield? I'll leave it in the driveway. Thanks pal!
no outer molding?

Awesome work! I have a wrangler tomorrow. i may use my kong cut out tool. Did you relief cut to get the wire through or did you just push it through in the beginning?

Champion Windshield Repair thank you 😊
I use to just handwire it out when i use to do replacements

Thanks for the comment, i like the foam block idea.
What do you charge for this jeep windshield usually
Nice job Alfredo, I going try to do the job myself around the
following 2 weeks,

good job
What’s the name of the tool and where can I get it
Alfredo...I've been the autoglass replacement industry for 35+ years.....Like your work my friend... I noticed you apply the urethane to the aperture and not the glass...Is this a personal preference, or is there a reason for doing so?
????

Cirdecus by those stickers on eBay for a buck if you really need them, us Jeep people are as bad as corvette people....Super picky
I need mine changed, but have top led bar and bottom on each side. They said to remove the lights first. Too much work
how do you figire out when a windshield needs to have 5504g all in one primer applied to it or not?
depends on type of glue your using an the frit band on the glass
+glass dude on the seramic frid and none seramic frid bands?

I have a guy coming out today to replace the windshield in my 2014 Sahara. Sure wouldn't attempt this myself !

And the rubber/ black glue or whatever that is is non existent, so it looks really dumb. Super frustrated about it, wish I had someone like you do it lol.
safelight makes a small break in bottom corner... saved alot of work
They just break the glass to slip the tool through?
+Charles Bloyer ya small hole to put wire through

hand wire it out in 5 min.

Far too much work for a Wrangler. Hand-wiring is far easier and quicker.
coated coldknife dude. Sorry. This is nonsense
Cold knife is even more nonsensical.. what if it's been replaced before and pinched?
Handwire from one side to the mirror button, stop remove wire. Repeat process on the other side... pow, it's out. 25 min job
