While tossing lumber in my 1990 Ford F150 Pickup truck, I knocked out
the rear window on the passenger side. Yeah, I deserve idiot award,
and I'm still pissed about it. Anyhow, this is a 4 piece window,
left, right, and the two in the middle that slide open. I only broke
the right non-slide piece
I removed all the broken pieces of glass and found there is a plastic
sleeve on the outer side that removes, and the top, bottom, and where
it slides into the vertical center piece there is a thin rubber piece.
What I cant understand is how do I get the glass in there along with
all those rubber pieces and that thick plastic slide in piece.
It does not appear that verticle metal piece is removable, otherwise
it would seem easy to slide the glass in there. I noticed there is a
piece of metal trim under the window that has 4 screws to remove it.
Maybe thats just trim, or maybe it will help.
Another thing, how the heck do those slide window pieces in the middle
come out. I'm sure they do (somehow).
The rest of the window and the frame are all fine, I just need that
one piece of glass. I'm hoping I dont have to remove, and/or replace
the entire window (all 4 pieces of glass). Tomorrow I go to the local
junk yard and hopefully they have this glass. I'm sure theres some
trick to this.
Thanks in advance for all help.
