one piece in place of sliders
 
Any help with info on replacing the side sliding glass with one piece windows would be appreciated.

Thanks

All the rear side window stuff is the same, just flipped and on opposite sides-the right rear window will fit the front left hole, etc. Same for the sliders, except for the mounting tabs-a MIG can take care of that pretty easily.
If you have four solids, two will fit up front, just flipped and on opposite sides.

Not so- front and rear are different, ever so slightly. Take a CLOSE look and the angles from a side view. There is a post somewhere here that addresses that.

I dunno, I just know I have all 4 sliders and all four will swap on my 64 burb. I've stacked them up and compared them, and I've temporarily held the solids into the front holes-there seems to be slight differences in all the holes probably due to mass manufacturing-mine has some sloppy lines especially on the roof. Worst case scenario make templates and have the glass cut.

Front and rear are not the same. I made patterns out of 1/8'' plywood to get my glass cut.

That's where I saw it! Thanks Nobby. Until this past year I too thought they interchanged. See post #260 in Nobby's build:

Yup I made templates and the fronts and rears are definitely not the same. Even the gaskets are different.

thanks to everyone

That wasn't directed to you Lucifer, a moderator removed crazyhenry's original post (which IIRC, offered to sell some one piece glass, or something like that) and put in the text referring to this forum's rules.

Any one have pictures of a finished suburban with no sliders?
