advice on blazer 1 piece window set-up? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Blue4x4 · 02-28-2007, 10:23 PM

Any suggestions or pictures will be most helpful. I know of a guy who has a top that was set up for this application. Just want the pro's and con's. Thanks

As far as I know, one piece windows don't work on Blazers because there isn't any support with the top off and the window half way down.

Blue4x4 · 03-01-2007, 08:45 PM

Isn't there still support in the front and rear of the window that would be enough?

There is someone on the board trying to develop a kit that will work. Having never tried it, or looked at it closely, I don't know exactly where the problems are.

Captkaos has posted a pre order for the 1 piece windows. There is a blazer bracket available.....guess I'll see how it works.

maybe it's an age thing. But am I the only one that thinks vent windows are cool? It's one of the reasons I love old cars.

I thnk on a custom street machine, the single piece windows can look great and be a nice custom touch. For my current blazer, I like the vents and it wouldn't be worth changing. Someday, I'll have a bagged 2wd Blazer...

I agree with Bouncy, I would never do it to "GQ" because she is SOOO stock,
but now "Merlot" on the other hand will be anything BUTTT stock someday

Blue4x4 · 03-06-2007, 07:03 PM

Just tossing up the options and pricing. Thanks for all the feed back.

Keep us posted and let us know how it works.

I know this is an olde thread but... has anyone been able to put a one piece window in a blazer ?

SeventyOne · 09-16-2010, 03:43 PM

I could be wrong but I thought I saw a kit being sold by LMC? Is it no good?

I have this picture.

hoopty-cuztom · 09-19-2010, 09:54 PM

looks better stock to me, i like the vent windows i wish my 95 dodge had them

zammer · 09-19-2010, 09:59 PM

Yeah, im really leaning towards staying stock for the extra support for the door windows on the blazer, just seeing if anyone was using them and how they like them..

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 09-24-2010, 08:53 AM

Im pretty sure scott never put them in his blazer...
