rear window removal

ok sorry i know search button. i jfount the thread but couldnt find it again. i was wandering what process i need to do to remove a rear window out of a b2200 ext. and also will the rear window from a b2200 fit in a b2600i? i just wanna make sure.

i just removed one yesterday. the easiest way i have found is to cut the gasket from the outside of the truck just cut until you can see the edge of the window and use that as a guide for the rest of the way around. I would say that all of the windows would be interchangeable within 86-93 no matter if it is b22 or b26. But I am not 100% sure.

DO NOT CUT THE SEAL. a new seal is usually pretty damn expensive. All you need to do is go to the inside. pull one corner back and start pushing on the window. you will push the window and the seal out of the truck at the same time. have someone on the outside help you walk the two out.

what he said ^^^

and just incase your next question is how to reinstall...................
then to reinstall the window get you some twine... put it in the track where the window would sit... put your window up against the seal and have somebody push firmly on the window.... slowly pull the twine untill you get it all the way around the window

I got my window from a parts truck so i didn't care about the gasket. guess i should have put that in there.

well im doin it by myself so im most likely gonna have to cut the gasket. unfortunatly i will have to cut the gasket

no dont do it.... theres got to be someone that can help you....

Well I just bought a new one for my truck and it was 60 bucks my cost through PPG through mazda cost was over 100 and list was like 140. not sure what a junk yard would charge you, and you can get them out by your self, I have used paint sticks and stuck them in the rubber, a whole bunch of them all along the top and sides then get one corner started to come out from the inside and then go outside and start to pull gently and it should work its way out if not add more sticks or screw drivers what ever you have (paint sticks work better because they are flat and wide) and pull some more you dont have to do the bottom because it will lift out when you get the sides and top done.

ok if the gasket does get messed up cand the one off the slider work?

yes they are the same gasket for slider or non slider
