Remove side glass MCI

[Bus Busted]

Need help on how to remove the side glass from a 1986 MCI 102A3. I have the new glass (pic 1) and have removed the inside trim (pic 2). I looked at the outside and can't see how it would come out (pic 3). Tapped out the inside frame and saw no movement or flex (pic 4). I have looked through the stuff I have found online, but maybe I'm wording it wrong. Please tell me how to get the new glass in and help make America look better one bus at a time...   Thanks, Jon

   Guess I should state that this happened after being towed. The driver aired up the system, released the park brake, and started towing. Then when I got it home he removed the air, lowered it down, and it rolled forward right into the wrecker taking out the right side windshield and the door glass. The driver said without the air it should have locked the brakes. I looked inside and the gauge still showed 70 psi, but it was dropping. He should have hit the park break before removing air line, he should have blocked the tires. He's covering glass replacement cost.

   I won't get all the way on my soap box, but you have to check the work of others! It seems no one cares anymore or takes pride in their work. But I will tell you this (moves closer to soap box). I ordered the glass and asked for a box truck with a lift gate. Monday the semi driver called and I said sorry my drive will take a box truck, not a semi. Tues got a call from the semi driver, told him the same and said make this delivery "box truck only". Called shop and said someone needs to mark this Box Truck as stated in the notes. They said they saw that after it was too late. So Wednesday the semi driver calls and I tell him read the slip "Oh". Call shop again, "Oh Sorry, we'll get it right". Thursday the semi driver calls and gets it with both barrels I start with "I know it's not your fault, but you work for idiots!!!" After 15 min of venting he says he'll head straight back and I should see another driver in about 2 hours. 2 hrs later the semi driver calls and I find out they moved it from one semi to another. I call them and tell them to ship it back to KY and I'll drive down there with a trailer and show them the right way to do it. They said they knew this looked bad, but if they didn't get it right Friday they would do what I asked (if they wanted to do what I asked they would have sent a Box Truck the 1st time) So this morning the Box truck driver calls and I tell him come on by!

   Oh Yes, I tried the right way first, I called around and was told from local glass companies they would not fix because they might break new glass on install, they would try if they didn't have to pay for broken glass.

Your bus does not have spring brakes. Simply losing air will not guarantee that the parking brakes apply. The parking brake valve should pop up when air gets low, but 70 psi is probably not low enough. You needed to apply the service brake and pull up on the park brake valve to set the parking brake.

Call Joel @ Choo Choo Garage 423-260-1290.
He can tell you how to replace the door glass. He changed one on our MCI that got broke while there @ their shop. (Nobody knows how it got broke but we all suspected the commercial mowers mowing the property next door. I paid for glass he covered labor)

I've replaced all the windows on my 1989 102 A3.

you've pulled the dozens of screws from the inside, removed the strip.  Now you simply pry from the outside and push from the inside.  Once the caulk begins to break loose, you have the old window in your hands.

Now, changing the glass within the frame is another story.  I haven't done that.   I took it to a glass company.
