How do I remove and replace the windshield on a 1988 Ford Ranger?

I'm pretty sure it's glued on and not set in a re-usable rubber gasket.How do I remove and replace the windshield on a 1988 Ford Ranger?
I had to replace a windshield on the exact truck including the year. You can go to a auto parts store and get a windshield remover saw (don't know the exact name). Its a long thin saw blade thing and you just ';saw'; around the window to get it out. Then clean the area good and install the new gasket and windshield. Be careful you dont crack it. Mine came out perfect and then the next day there was a huge crack in it. I had to do it all over again. Good luck.How do I remove and replace the windshield on a 1988 Ford Ranger?
You will need to cut the old one out. You also need a suction cup or a friend to help put it in position. My honest opinion is it is worth $75 to let someone that knows how to do it and has the tools do it. Thats is what it costs in central IL anyway.
