51 F3 door windows can't remember

I have my vent windows and door glass at the glass shop. The shop called
me because we can't remember how the glass is installed in the lift channel.
The channel is offset to one side. Can anyone give some advice? thanks

David,

My driver's side door glass is out of my 48 F-3 which would be the same as your 51. As far as glass placement in the channel, I measure 3/8 of an inch of glass that extends past the forward edge of the channel and 1 1/16 inch extends past the rearward edge. The channel is mounted with the offset to the inside. As far as I know this is the original door glass. Hope this is what you are looking for...
