Replaced the driver’s side rear window vent. I did the passenger side a few weeks ago because it was broken and this one looked fine. Yesterday the weatherstripping was hanging down the side of the truck, so I replaced it. Also worked on the OEM jack a little. Scraped some rust- made sure it worked smoothly- put rustoleum rust reformer on and then a top coat of bed liner. Still works fine, so remounted it in its spot.

Put the jack inside a zip lock freezer bag before storing it. Then fix your leaking quarter window and/or belt moulding.

Little details like the louvres make a nice visual difference. Looking good.
 
Started to dive into my driver side rear quarter panel rust and this thing was right where the rust was forming.
It has an expiration date of 1997 and my truck is a 1996……….
Are these the Toyota Magic Beans that keep it running?

Are you cutting that out and welding in new? My wife's rig was just like that... Took some doing, but got it welded up with sheet metal scored here on Mud. Check for a part out.

Oh yeah. Already did it on the passenger side which was way worse so hopefully this will be easier.
It was my First time doing sheet metal so it’s not the best, but at least I’m learning lol.
I had to take the passenger side up pretty high.

Looks great, man. There’s real satisfaction in that type of work. 🍻
 
You also need new sealing washers for the banjo fitting. 90430-10074. 2 per side.
