Big back window

Can anyone tell me if you can convert a standard back window on a 62 1/2ton to a Big back window, just by cutting the hole bigger and installing the bigger window and gasket, Thanks

Re: Big back window

pretty much but the hard part, unless you find an inner big window panel, is to piece together the inside panel

I've done this conversion myself, but there's a little bit more to it than just cutting the hole out bigger. Check out my "project pics" below my signature.
