47-50 Side Windows

Hi All,

Sorry if this has already been asked, but I couldn't find it anywhere if it has? Is it possible to convert the newer (51 - 55.1) AD trucks to use single side windows (as in no vent window) like the 47.2 - 50 trucks have? If so... what is involved in doing so?

Thanks, Sam

Re: 47-50 Side Windows

I've got a batch of 47/50 doors that I bought cheap at swapmeets over the years because someone had robbed the windows. hardware and regulators out of them for their later doors.

It isn't a hard job either with the kit or with donor parts.
