j hancock Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Pretty good info here. Glass comes out as an assembly with the door panel. https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/22516-how-do-you-remove-the-door-panel-on-a-b61/ 1 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

eddeere Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share Posted February 24, 2019 Thanks. Does the glass need to be up or down to drop the panel ? After twisting the panel up ,down, back and forth all I have done is some how gotten the glass out of the tracks on the panel . If I take the regulator and everything loose the panel should come out leaving the glass inside removed next . Not part of the plan or the way it came out two years ago . I am sure it will go back just as easy . Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55813-door-glass-removal/#findComment-416558 Share on other sites More sharing options...
j hancock Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Glass needs to be all the way down. It does takes a little wiggle and fiddle to get the whole deal out of the door shell.

Freightrain Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) Yup, crank the glass to the bottom. It needs to be BELOW the top of the channel at the top of the door panel. Then, with some wiggling you should be able to persuade it out of the door. My drivers door panel falls out easily. My passenger door takes lots of very carefully said cuss words! I'll let you use the words I use....just can't type them on the forums LOL!!! Start with George Carlins 7 words you can't say on TV...that's a good start.... I see you are using tape on the door to help with not destroying the paint. I finally had to do this with my new doors. Ugh, the old doors were much easier to work on!!

Truck Shop Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 One extra thing to help besides using tape. I used duct tape around the rolled edge of the opening in the door then smeared a thin layer of Napa brand Sil Glyde on the duct tape. The registers slid right over the tape/ no scratches. 2 Quote One ping only Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55813-door-glass-removal/#findComment-435958 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truck Shop Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 One other thing I used was Bostik 1100 urethane/adhesive to hold the weather striping in the register tracks and the two vertical seals in the vent windows. Those were originally riveted but using the 1100 and letting it set 24 hrs you can't tear them out. We use the 1100 to patch the inside of our refer trailer walls. When it drys it's stuck for good. 1 Quote One ping only Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/55813-door-glass-removal/#findComment-436357 Share on other sites More sharing options...
