1986F150Six Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Good price including shipping. https://www.ebay.com/itm/125483934734?hash=item1d376ce40e:g:VoEAAOSwkoZjCY~7&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAA0M1S0k7qPjzJYcYBQ6z6B2%2F87NLkfW1SZToiHkdn7u22PfcgQalLoSPSGXzjyEPbRdDcDCnlG0nfbqypN7OE4Lf76vFAPqynIY%2FjYUhPfXTSM08AIGoBKVcX%2BC%2F3oXLWh4%2Fn%2B%2Fz66C9GdZCuHETH%2FiYESYuGLTdt4frSuOlJIE4KUAUrBqEvAPnqi9T1kSoWq6aPqPtWwS1bdRJFaTx4qLY55dJLKKkmpHaDW9nPPjRnws5eE1SC6J3A90zn%2Fc%2Fzz1xzEbI0XXhtg7oEx5QJGbE%3D%7Ctkp%3ABFBMzu6eyNxg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delco1946 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Has anyone actually ever installed/replaced these onto the vertical bar piece? Is this a total nightmare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramttocs Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Has anyone actually ever installed/replaced these onto the vertical bar piece? Is this a total nightmare? These come in and out easy - couple screws on top and the nut on the bottom. Even easier if you have the whole assembly out of the door. Saves your arm skin Sounds like you are referring to the frame they go in though. I haven't removed the "flag" from the "pole" (best description I can think of) but I believe it's riveted on so could be removed/replaced if one really wanted to. Same goes for the top pivot point on the actual glass frame (what is in the ebay listing). I removed mine to powdercoat them and bought some special shouldered rivets to reinstall.

Gary Lewis Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Has anyone actually ever installed/replaced these onto the vertical bar piece? Is this a total nightmare? We actually have a step-by-step on the site: Documentation/Interior/Doors/Vent Windows. And, in searching for that, I've just realized we also have the section from the factory shop manual on removal and installation of it here: Documentation/Body/Vent Window Mechanism. Maybe I need to connect the two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Lewis Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I think linking (or even tabs) the two together is a great idea In the interest of time I put a link on each page to the other. But, we badly need someone with organizational capabilities to rationalize this place! I say that because it makes sense that vent windows would be in Documentation/Body rather than Documentation/Interior/Doors. Aren't vent windows both interior and exterior? Ditto doors?

Gary Lewis Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Just work it into your spare time, Gary! Yeah, right! If I did that then I'd have forgotten about it before time became available. (I think my memory used to be better, but I really can't remember.) But it took me a while to find Cash's writeup 'cause it isn't logical to find it in Interior. Door locks maybe, but not really.
