BROTHER's ONE PIECE WINDOW QUESTION

[DrtyJack75]

Ok I read CHEVYDUDES post on the Brother's One Piece Window and it's very helpful because I have a Kit from the PO and but no directions..

my question has to do with installing the front window channel..

(copied/post the link because I dont know how to do it any other way)

It says to drill the 1/8" hole but which hole in the front window channel is that supposed to line up with???

And John Fabris said something about the door stops getting in the way, can someone explain?? Im lost...and I really wanna get these windows in!

PS JOHN IF YOU STILL HAVE MY NUMBER, GIVE ME A CALL PLEASE!! I need help...

Download the instructions from Brothers Web site. It completely expains the install. I had and have no issues at all with mine. The only thing I did different was I used windsheild glue instead of the rubber matting to secure the window the regulator, made sure everything was in the channel, rolled it up tight and let it dry. I think this is better way to go.

Ok I dont see anything in the BROTHERs page about drilling the 1/8" hole in the inner door jam....

Ok now Im really frustrated...I got the window in and I jacked up the front window channel but that's not the BAD part.....I have another to replace it..

my frustration comes when I roll my window up, say...half way, it's EXTREMELY loose and just rattles around....

It's nice and tight in the FULL UP and FULL DOWN position but crappy anywhere in between..

is this a error on my part or is that just something I have to deal with?

If its something I have to deal with, Im going back to the vent windows...then that brings on another problem, the door is now cut up where the vent window is..

hmmmm????

I've heard thats a problem with one piece window conversion. All the way up or down is how it needs to stay.

I purchased the one piece windows also. I have not installed them yet. I hope I do not have any problems.

jeez....Im glad I didnt pay for them, Id be PO'd....the guy gave them to me when I bought the truck, but now I wish I could go back to vents...hmmm maybe some welding in my future....(put a piece of metal back in so I can reinstall the vents)


bad first day of my build

The single piece side window kits will rattle around when the window isn't all the way up or all the way down. It is the nature of the beast. When you remove the vent window, you also remove the chanel that holds the stock glass steady when it is only part way rolled down. The single piece side window kits count on the squeegy and fuzzies to hold the glass steady and it just isn't sufficiant. The problem is even worce with the reproduction doors, because the window gap it too wide. WES
