Rob Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Looking for a rear slider glass for my R model before I make one from parts. I ordered a new CR Laurence unit but it doesn't open far enough to comfortably operate my winch controls mounted on the headrack. The factory Mack type does open far enough. Anybody got one?

Coenut Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I might have one. Not sure if it's for an r. Pin has a slight bend in it. It's new in water logged box.

Rob Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 I don't think that is correct but can you measure the top width, bottom width, and height and I'll ensure. Doesn't need to lock in my application as the glass is about four inches from the winch actuator.

alex g Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 I've got one if Coenut doesn't work out. I held it up to my day cab r model and it's same. $100 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/56089-r-model-rear-slider/#findComment-417999 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted March 11, 2019 Author Share Posted March 11, 2019 Thanks Alex. I will look at my water wagon which has one and I'm thinking it's different. I don't think the type shown opens correctly for what I'm needing? I'll be back out there yet tonight.

Rob Posted March 17, 2019 Author Share Posted March 17, 2019 Forgot to update this but my rear slider is four piece with two panes sliding to clear the winch operating handle. A two piece glass setup such as shown will not work in the current application as the steel handle would impact the left pane. I certainly thought the original busted one was OEM Mack but apparently not. I still have the original gasket with a 7/8" wide groove, and original track; and may have it repaired. I'm also researching changing the mechanical shifted winch to either hydraulic, pneumatic, or hydraulic driven operation to eliminate this scenario altogether too. Thanks for the help guys! 1 Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
