Vent Window Delete?

Post by twinturbo61uni »

Anyone deleted the vent window and used a one piece side window? I think I can do it all...but need help locating seals. The main seal to locate would be the one at the bottom of the window on the outside. Is that called the beltline?

I'm working on a 61 uni.

Anyone got pictures or a parts list?

Hey I purchased the kit from Bobs F100s. and Im just completing the fit and mock up. Ill get some pictures up soon. The kit is a little high but comes with all the needed pieces. You will also have to install power windows to install the one piece glass.
Love those SLICKS

Hey those vent windows are important parts of the 2/55 air conditioner system

Just a note; everyone that rides in my truck, one of the first things they say is " I sure do miss vent windows, these are great". Now yes this is opinion and personal preference but I will keep mine.

I haven't decided to remove the vents or not. I like them too, but for the cost to restore, I wanted to at least consider modifying.

I looked at the two websites given and could not locate the kits. Anyone have a direct link?

Anyone with pictures of a truck with vent delete is most appreciated too!

Thanks everyone for the info so far.

I emailed with Bob's F100 today. $350 for the window kit and $249 for power window kit (required). He is not forthcoming at all with any details and did not send pictures after 3 requests. To me, something just does not exist if they cannot supply pictures!

Hey Steve, he sent pics of the installation to me a while back. I can forward them to you if you want.

Sounds like just take the order and the money and has the parts dropped shipped.

Just my two cents
