rear windows(searched but no results)

[sleepyeyes87]

OK, its almost ten oclock here. I am tired, soaking wet, and pissed. I have to remove the right rear quarter window out of my vert, but I am having some serious problems, and it's raining. I searched the forums with no luck. If someone can please get me a link to a post where it's listed, or even a very simple write up that would be great. I already have the rear seat and the rear interior panel out. I need to have this window out by 6 tomorrow morning. Thanks guys.

Theres 3x 13mm nuts that need to be loosened. One at the bottom and two at the top. These serve as the adjustment/alignment studs. If you remove the nuts you should be able to work the glass and window assembly out from the top?

Let me know if you need more assistance.

there is no way to remove the window with the glass down, it has to be done with it up. I know this because my driver's side is stuck down and I removed the bolts, but with it stuck down the assembly is just too large to remove through the opening. FSM specifies that it must be up as well.

My bad. My glass was broken out, that explains why mine came right out the top.

Back on topic, top_secret, if you have access to a FSM help this poor guy out.

I don't, actually.. I bought what I thought was one but it was only the 1993 amendments to the 1992 supplement...I have a copy of the section on removing rear windows somewhere, but I'm not sure how much help it would be... you pretty much put the window up and remove those 3 bolts after you take out the interior trim panel. I haven't got mine out yet though so I can't really comment on actually doing it. They sure didn't make them easy to service, which is a shame. the front windows are a breeze to take in and out.

Thanks guys. I finally got it out around one last night. I had the remove the entire motor and gear assembly in order to get that bottom bolt to clear. and i had to put the top down, and slide the whole window and track backwards to get it out. I'm gonna do a write up with pictures and all and post it as soon as i get a chance.

that would be awesome, glad that you got it out, hopefully I'll have mine fixed soon.
