Re: PO has me PO'd

Started working on my vent windows, rebuild kit from brothers. Disassembly went ok except a couple of spinning heads, which I took care of with my dremel and a new cut off wheel

If you are drilling the rivets out and you don't see shavings stop, and use a new drill bit, if you continue with a dull bit you will only work harden the rivet, more probems

Use a good sharp punch, in the center of the rivet, it will keep your drill from walking, and use a cutting fluid to keep the drill bit sharp

Re: PO has me PO'd

Ordered a new handle with my rebuild kit, used a 3/32 drift pin punch, but you don't have to knock it out all the way, just far enough to get past the groove in the post inthe window

The other day I was looking thru the classifieds and came across a thread for parts needed for wind windows, followed the link to car and truck site

They had the division bar in shock, ordered the part and was happy with what I received, but, I didn't read the note which mentioned the original felt channel that was not included

Ordered that part and was even more pleased with parts

Originally what was supplied was a sticky thin piece of felt, which may have worked, but was the wrong thickness for the glass, so if you order the division bar, don't cheap out. Buy the felt with it as recommended in the notes

The bead on the division bar is exact replica

Now, I have to drill all the holes for the rivets

Re: PO has me PO'd

Well actually the original mount is 1/2” and the space to get the door lined up is 1/2”, so considering age of truck maybe the rubber mount is shot. Don’t know what size they should be

Thanks for the input
