BROTHERS one-piece window kits eliminate your Chevrolet or GMC Pickups vent windows and give your truck the smooth appearance and smooth operation of one-piece glass. This special cut of glass on our 55-59 conversion allows for complete sealing around the window and easy roll-up or down operation. Our glass kit was painstakingly designed for easy installation and use. The glass is available in clear or tinted (check local and state laws regarding side window tint). Dave Welch is a classic truck Specialist and he's got plenty of tricks for nearly every project on your classic!

Oldschool mechanic, we don't need damn guards on rotary tools! Good stuff!

@jamesberdine8574 6 месяцев назад

I am a 45 year aircraft mechanic. Always use guards and ppe as a side note I have all my fingers, toes and eyes. Can still hear too.

@jamesberdine8574 6 месяцев назад

Cool project. Looks good. However I would miss the wing window breeze.

@oldblueshhrchannel1847 3 года назад

Great video! Thank you for your explanation of all the pitfalls during this modification, I’ve broken the glass when setting the channel on the bottom. Sometimes, I don’t know my own strength! Just tap it! Not pound it!!

@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV 3 года назад

We've done the same. Live and learn.

Very helpful Dave. Going to come in handy when I update my 12958 GMC.

@JimmyMakingitwork 2 года назад

Man it makes me nervous seeing that spinning blade without a guard a 1/2 from your fingers, I usually cut off about 1/2 of it, but leave the back of it....but great work and very informative as usual. I wish this could be done on my 62?

@GeeenJ 3 года назад

nice conversion to get rid of those leaky quarter windows a better way to form the curved corners on the bailey channel is use the glass and slowly bend it round the corners of the glass then it fits better into the corners of the door frame i've done this on a lot of early holdens here in australia that use the same channelling as you used in the video

Thanks for the tip!

Sorry, but I like my vent wing windows?! The engineers at the factory back then knew what they were doing. I like em! Especially when you don't have A/C!! Nice vid as always Dave!

If you use the glass to form the window run channel the corners will come out cleaner. Recently found your channel, great stuff, keep up the good work.

A trick for those Phillip's head screws is to use an impact screwdriver, the one that takes screw bits and you hit it with a hammer, you can get them from harbor freight or online and they work really good.

Thank you for the tip!

@8man753 8 месяцев назад

Dave, have you added a video on this with converting the window to electric and using Altman latches? If not, could you? Thanks.

@ChevyC-hf6km 3 года назад

3M Superfast Urethane Windshield Adhesive works a whole lot better for setting glass in the channel. Assemble it and trim the excess and you're done.

Thanks for the suggestion, we'll get on it!

I have the one piece glass for the doors. Can I get the felt and hardware kit without the glass from Brothers?

@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV 2 года назад

You can call customer service and ask. Typically if there is a part number for the individual part then it can be sold separately. 800-977-2767

Wish you guys did Ford! Seems so much harder to get info on my F1.

Can you guys please do a video on how to do a one piece window for a 1953 chevy truck thanks

@johnlreim 3 года назад

Turns out Brothers doesn't sell that kit any longer. They must have had some problems or it didn't sell well.

@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV 3 года назад

@@johnlreim We're in the process of re-releasing it right now. We had a problem with our glass supplier but we've gotten it straightened out. Should be available again by spring 2021.

@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV 3 года назад

Video should be coming along with the re-release of the kit. Spring 2021.

@drewpierce2273 3 года назад

David, Typically I have installed windows with the door still body mounted, so I'm curious as to what you are using to free support the door for this video. Great technique by the way.

@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV 3 года назад

We fabricated a stand specifically to use for this video.

@UcantBeSerious03 3 года назад

I want the smoke glass version. Is there a left and right window due to the tint? Or is the tint actually in the glass. tks

@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV 3 года назад

Tint is in the glass, no left and right, it's all the same. However, we are discontinuing the tinted glass soon so if you want some you better get it now while we still have it in stock. August 2021

No kits are available at the moment. However, we are working on both of those kits (60-63 & 64-66) and they should be available mid 2022.

I have a 1977 Chevy k20 and the driver door is stuck closed and neither of the handles work. Any suggestion of how to open the door?

@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV 3 года назад

Our only suggestion would be to try and remove the inner panel and see if you can get to the latch actuating rod to pull on it. That should release the latch and you can proceed from there.

@elijahrobertsonvlogs738 3 года назад

@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV what would be the best way to get the window crank off

@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV 3 года назад

@@elijahrobertsonvlogs738 The crank has a clip behind it, you just push the clip off with something flat like a small screwdriver.
