Re: 55-57 one piece windows

I picked up the glass yesterday for grandpas truck. I plan on putting it in this weekend. I will get that video up soon. Dad and I put in brothers manual kit in his truck, and had to make an exrta part to make it work right. I can show and tell you better than I can type it. So if you can wait a little, I will try to show you what I know. Which might not be much help, but we have put in 5 sets of 1 piece glasses.

Thanks BD that would be great. Right now I'm no where near ready for the glass but I did remove my vent windows with the intention of putting in 1 piece units. I still have my vent window set up and I haven't cut anything out of the doors yet so I can still go back to stock at this point, just weighting the benefits of each one.

Thanks,
Sam

Re: 55-57 one piece windows

Does any company make a better kit than Brothers, are they the only game in town for 1 piece window kits?
