back window

[smplunkett]

I know I saw a thread about the back window motor a couple of years ago - can't seem to find it now. Anyone know where it is? Also, how do I get the rear window down if the motor is not working now? Thanks for the help -

Also, how do I get the rear window down if the motor is not working now?

This is one of the funnest places to work on your Pig.
Take off the tailgate access panel, stick your hands inside, feel along the the lower edge of glass channel, find the 2 tabs sticking down from the sliding lock things. Put the business end of a blade screwdriver on that tab, tap the handle with a hammer. Driving the locking tab inward, toward the center of the door. When the locking tabs are out, you remove a rectangular bracket from each end of the window channel. Now the window can slide down into the door, you can then open it. With the tailgate down, you can slide out the window and work on the motor.

I doesn't sound like you have ever had to do that, pighead.

Pablo's spot on. Here is mine with some pics, I recently did it. Pretty easy, the hardest part is contorting your body to get up there https://forum.ih8mud.com/fj55-iron-...ety/607081-mudders-meet-elsie-my-new-pig.html
