Driver side window got busted out.

Does any one have any instruction for putting in a new one? I'm going to try and do it my self tomorrow. I have a 1975 F100, what other years will work? Any advise would help.

anything from 73-79 will fit in your window.

some broke my window last summer. it's very hard to change.

1 make sure all the old glass peices are cleaned up and removed
2 take your time. the window doesn't bend!
3 if you remove your trinalur window it helps
4 unscrew all the weather striping and whatnot. remove the screws. give more room to play around with
5 try sliding the window down into the slot and getting the gearing to catch the metal notch.

this is what i did, but i took me a few hours to get it right and almost 1 more new window.

hope this helps ya out bud

Much easier if you remove rear track assy[2 bolts],remove vent window.Install glass,hooking roller on regulator.then install vent window,roll glass up,reinstall rear track.Brian
