Lowering rear window.
I've read through bouth FAQ pages on the rear window not working.
It says to lower it by pushing or via the access panel but doesn't give any details on how to do that.
Would somebody please elaborate.
Thanks,

.....unless the window just flat won't come down
I'll see what I can do I'm afraid of doing something and breaking the glass(I don't know if it matters with it being an '84 but its all original except for the stereo).
Is that glass heavy? Or is it the fact that it'll drop unexpectantly?

I took the motor out of mine recently. I was warned that the glass could fall when the motor is removed. I put a 2X4 inside the gate to hold the glass while I removed the motor. When I got through I had to push the glass down. My regulator may have been gummed up and that is probably why mine did not fall. The hardest part was working in the back of the bronco while laying on my side. I was savy enough to make sure it was parked in the shade and I did it in the morning. It was not hard to remove it. The tough part was putting the motor back in because you can't get your hands in there very well. Make sure you grease up all the runners while you are in there. It will help the glass slide up and down better.

Lowered one at a junkyard a few years ago by bringing one of those car jump boxes (car battery type) along and connecting the wires from the key switch. Apparently just lost the connection back to the front of the rig, so we supplied the power and it lowered no problem!
