Vent window repair
I want to say up front. I will never do this again after I get the other one done. I have spent over 15 hrs on one vent window rebuild and it's done but it sure don't look pretty.
The rivets and tool I got was useless by myself. That was $15.00 wasted money. No instructions on how to use it and even if there where some, it's not for a one man show. With that being said I used my rivet gun and I hope it will all work out. The rubber seals are a pain to insert into the V-channel and keep them in place while you fit everything together. I have the drivers side done and I'm not looking forward to the passenger side at all. Even though I know it needs being done. I will be more than happy to pay for new vent windows next time around! It's not perfect but it does seem to work ok. So far anyway's.

Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs. |
