Hi..I'm new to the forum but I've been reading posts for quite some time and getting A LOT of good info and tips..thank you to everyone..my immediate question is, (there will be plenty in the future) about window replacement..I was given some used Anderson encasement windows to put in..really nice ones!..my concern is the size of some of them..2 of them are 73" x 87 1/2" .. which I believe are way too big for a single wide 14 x 66..will I need any special framing for the windows?..sizes range from 29 x45.. 45 x 58.. 29 x 32.. thank you

Windows are relatively easy once you do one or two. Plan on having to reframe for the windows, I have found that often once you open things up that often there is rot started and you have to change the anyway. no difference to change sizes, just go bigger to save yourself work.
