Is it hard to pull out the windows? I have a 99 Dak, and want to get them out. Is there a technique?

first of all anyone that buys a ford doesn't have a clue about anything. Now to you Brad.
I assume you are talking about the door glass. It's not a very hard job but it takes alittle work. First remove your door pad. be careful around the door handle making sure not to break the trim piece. Once you remove the panel, put the window half way up the window channel. Remove the bolt on the front channel just above the door speaker. Now here is where it gets a little difficult. There are 2 guides in the rear of the glass that keeps the window in the channel. From the outside grab the top of the glass and tilt the window to the front of the door until the top clip pops out of the channel. Once you have the top clip out keep tilting the glass, the bottom clip should come out of the channel also. Once you have both clips out of the channel, the bottom of the glass slides out of the crank mechanism. It takes alot of patience but it is not that hard.

Hey Greg.. Another question. I got both of the bolts out of the bottom brace the glass is sitting in. Do I have to take a bolt out of the channel thing that is running up and down? And is it easy to put the window back in? Thanks for the help!

Brad,
can you take a pic and send it to my email? fireball_700@hotmail.com. It sounds like my 92 is a little different than yours. it sounds like your glass is bolted to the window regulator. mine sits in a white plastic slide and justs slides out. If yours is bolted to the regulator then i believe you might have to take the bolt out of the front channel so you can tilt the window forward to pop the back clips out of the rear channel.

Thanks Greg, I figured it out.. It's bolted twice on the bottom, and one above the speaker like you said. I got it out though and back in with no problem. Thanks for the help!
