Question Disabling Child proof windows??

In the back seat, the windows dont go down all the way, they go down like 3 quarters of the way and stop. I know thisis some sort of safety/child feature, is there anyway to disable it and get the back wondows to go all the way down? I assume if i take the door panels off there has to be something in there the window hits that causes it to stop....

What year of truck? I think the reason the windows don't go all the way down in the back has to do with the shape of the rear doors and the size of the glass itself. The window cannot go down past the dog leg in the rear door...

I could be wrong (so someone please corect me if I am), but I don't think this is a child safety feature of any kind... I think its limited by the design and shape.

Dont bother, there is no such safety feature. Its just the limitations of the window and door size like Racer944 stated.
