I have 2 questions here,
first my truck was chopped from a few owners ago and I cannot find anyone that knows how to chop or can help me with chopping glass. is there any place that I can get windows chopped for it in or around london ontario area. (i will also use lexan if i need to)

Second i'm having a issue with my started and flywheel. when i go to start it the starter engages but seems like its not getting enough power to fully engage or start the truck. also the starter does not disengage and gets stuck in the flywheel. any answers?

As far as side glass most glass shops can handle that job.Windshields are tough and most glass shops won't mess with cutting one down.Check link below as it has some useful info on cutting a windshield down.In my shop we actually grind the glass down with a flexible disc air grinder and then clean it up with a belt sander.When using a grinder you must make very small passes on glass and be careful not to heat it up.Very slow process and will take 10 to 15 hrs to cut a few inches off.We have never broke one this way as we have broke them using the sand blaster method.
