Adam,

Orient window so it is on bottom. Use small wood blocks to keep window in place. Glue blocks around perimeter of window -- use enough to keep window from moving. Mix up hysol and apply to frame then put window in location. Use sandbag to apply pressure to window. Wipe up squeeze out.  No bolts!
