:fb: Hey guys!!
We've been doing some pretty cool things here. Here is one of the last releases we did on this truck body. We stumbled a little upon release but got it smoothed out. Glass will come in Privacy and original green tint. Let us know what you think?

I think its sexy! Looks like an awesome compliment to the one piece side windows. If only we could get a flush fit windshield too...

Re: 7391 C-10 Flush Fit Back Glass
 
How does this affect the trim for the headliner above the back window. I noticed the grey reck didn't have trim inside above the window. And what's turn around time on this product. Is there a price break if I order the back glass and the one piece windows?

Do y'all have a flush windshield in the works and if so when is that coming out?

The flush windshield is in the works but is running slow cause of manufacturing. We are trying to keep it here in the U.S.
We do offer a price break when both kits are ordered together. 5%off
The back glass is offered in privacy and green like the side glass. Both are in stock and we just received the clipped on Scrapers for easy install.

Do you have everything in stock, like the brackets, and can ship them out today?

And what about the headliner trim. Does it still go back into place like it should and is there a gap or not

Sorry, forgot about your headliner question. The trim on the inside covers the gap caused between the glass and the pinchweld. It kinda looks like a door seal with a special profile. The one in the picture was our first version of the trim and now looks like it belongs. It has the same type of inner lip like the original gasket. So there is no problem for headliner applications.
Hope this helps.

Ben, Jeff Drew here. I got the roller tracks for the upgrade, but you never responded about the clip on scrapers I e-mailed you about. Can you sell those too and how much for them?

How much do they cost and what about shipping to Germany?

Hey Jeff.
I haven't responded cause the new style scrapers just came in Yesterday and we are shipping out all the back ordered ones. We will sell them for $75 + shipping which can be between $15-$25. If you still want the new style just give us a call.

The back glass or 1pc side glass? I would need an address to quote it.

They start at $245 and $20 more for privacy. Includes the glue for the install and the inner trim that goes in place of the original rubber.

Hmm... Wonder how that would look on my truck?

How long does it take for you to ship them out? I'm in GA, 30011.

How well does this sealer hold the glass in place ?

I mean, The door windows are only inches away so there's gotta be a greater wind force on this flat mounted glass as opposed to a longer passenger car with a slanted rear glass.

Thanks

If you are speaking of the back glass, we send the urethane out with the kit, and its all in the location of where you shot the glue. You can reference the video that's linked. I don't think I understand your door window question, but the door glass is completely seperate from the back glass and holds no compromise. As far as windforce, the urethane glue we use has a tensile strength above 1100psi when fully cured.
thanks for your question!

That answered my question/concern, Windforce from open door windows blowing the back glass out....

Thanks

I like it. Wish I could afford the side windows... Installed mine last weekend. Only issue I had was due to my painter. He never removed my back window, so the original under the gasket showed. Nothing a little touch up did not fix.
Other recomendations are to warm that glue and wipe the glue off while it is wet like he says in the video. I figured it would be a mess and would just cut it out, but doing so took off some of the paint and it all does not come off easy...

We already have the pattern made for both the 67-72 and the 73-91 C-10s. We are trying to keep production here in the US, but find it difficult to keep cost down. We have sources outside the US but we don't want to deal with the issues caused by shipping into the US, but price will be very reasonable. Just keep posted.

Yep, the good 'ol government has made it VERY hard for small businesses to succeed due to cheaper products & services from abroad - it's truly a shame!!! Just rest assured - if you make a flush mount front glass kit for these trucks, people WILL buy them & I will be one of the first!!! Keep doing what you do guys - we all appreciate your efforts for the custom truck world!

How well would this glass handle with the constant vibration from subwoofers?? Would it stay in place or is there a chance of it coming off

my4by2 03-31-2011 11:58 PM

Re: 73-91 C-10 Flush Fit Back Glass
 
It's glued in the same way all late model front & rear glass is so I would imagine it would do just as good. Just my thoughts.

How dark is the privacy glass? I'm wondering if I want privacy glass, or just get clear and have it tinted like the side windows?
