Rear slider help!!

[k5blazin]

Anyone know the manufacturer?
Any source for new seals/wipers/rubber?
Any idea how to disassemble? Nearest I can tell they may have been assembled then welded up? Any info would be much appreciated! Thanks

Not sure, but I can tell you for sure it wasn't welded after assembly.
Someone put it together , so it must come apart.
I would try removing the sliding glass first, then see if the fixed glass can slide towards the middle of the housing then removed. You might have to flex the extrusions apart abit.
Can't be difficult to figure out.
As far as seals, you may have to use one of the many different profiles available from Steele rubber or Soff Seal.

Edit;
Try here. Lots of profiles to chose from;

The frames of factory sliders for pickups were screwed together and I rebuilt the one in my truck. If I recall correctly, neither the double or single pane K5 sliders had frames that were screwed together - believe these were welded together at the time of assembly.

When I rebuilt my pickup slider I went to an auto glass shop and scrounged for seals that were appropriate and bolted it back together.

I’m thinking you are correct! It appears that you can remove the seals and slide the window away from the spot welded area ! This will allow the channel to open up a bit to remove all the glass.
