Hello,

I am trying to replace all the window seals on my 76 gmc vandura. Looks like I have to remove the vent window in order to get the other window out so I can replace the rails.

I can't seem to find a video on how to get the vent window set up out and back in safely, and how to remove the big window. The door panel is steel, so access is limited. I am sure there is a safe & easy way to do this?

Thank you!

The van doors are almost identical to the truck doors, so thankfully there's a ton out there for trucks.

Good luck! If you find anything different from those videos, please report back!
