Abstract: A portable apparatus for removing and installing windshields on a vehicle disassembles in to several light weight pieces. The small pieces are easily transported and assembled at a job site where a windshield is to be replaced. An adjustable height post is mounted on a base that includes a ramp to be placed under a vehicle wheel by driving the vehicle upon the base. A horizontal arm is mounted on the post. The horizontal arm is raised or lowered by a jack type device mounted on the post. The horizontal arm is moved horizontally to place a windshield, held to the arm by suction cups, in position over the vehicle. The horizontal arm both pivots and rotates to correctly position the windshield. The windshield to be replaced is first removed by the apparatus.
