69R-CODE 25 Report post Posted January 16, 2015 I am trying to put my quarter glass (fastback) back into the car and am having one heck of a time. Can anyone walk me through the steps or point me to an "how-to" article. I am not sure if you need to put the lower bracket on the car and then try and put the glass in or If you need to loosen the upper pivot rod or perhaps I am doing it wrong all together? Help Please. 1 cobragary reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
det0326 179 Report post Posted January 16, 2015 I have not put mine in permanently yet but I did do a trial fitment before paint. I finally got it to fit pretty good but it was definitely a pain. I used an after market seal and glass and blamed some of the problems on that. If I recall correctly (been a long time) I put the top bracket in first then bolted the bottom bracket. The bottom bracket is what I had the most trouble with, I had to open the holes up a little on the car body for more adjustment. Again I don't know if this is because I was using repo stuff or not. You probably already know that you need the door glass in and adjusted correctly before final adjustment to the 1/4 glass. I haven't found any how to articles but maybe someone will chime in with that information hopefully. I have found an article about installing the weather strip that goes around the 1/4 window and around the door but nothing on the 1/4 glass itself. If I remember right my window and brackets were together and did not take them off except for the top one where the 1 piece that goes up into the channel under the roof.

69R-CODE 25 Report post Posted January 16, 2015 Thanks for the info. I have tried it several ways and cant seem to make it all work. Its probably just being in a rush and not thinking. I just wish there was a step by step out there somewhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted January 16, 2015 Try searching the Mustang Monthly website, I am sure they have covered this. Also try an online search, I just plugged one into Bing for "'69 mustang how to install quarter glass" and saw at least 4 you tube videos pop up and numerous articles from Mustang sites.

Raven R code 281 Report post Posted January 17, 2015 Do you have all the parts? If you are missing the lower bracket that installs with 2 bolts, it won't make sense. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
