I’m here after mowing my lawn.
That alone should explain everything
Oh damn man! I know that can happen but never really had anyone tell me it happened!
Nice job. I watched a couple other videos but once I saw you had one, I went straight to it because I know your instructions are good and simple. I'm ready to do this when my auction truck arrives tomorrow. Thanks.
Thanks man!🤙 I appreciate it.
Nice! What did you get?
@@TheMinuteMasters 1996 f250 ext short bed auto w 460. Looks like it has a bag over driver window. Hope it fell down and is not broken.
You cannot "just turn the vent window frame" like that on earlier (pre 1992) F-Series trucks. The '87-91 Trucks have a rigid vent window frame and you have to also remove the two screws on the door frame lip that hold it in place, THEN work the whole vent window frame loose, lift and pull back slightly and THEN carefully rotate it. The later post 92 models were different and much simpler, as shown in this video. Good and very helpful video though, just that us 87-91 owners (and earlier) wont have it quite this easy... still easy though.
Ah! Definitely a few more steps with the older models. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks man!🤙
Thank you for watching!
I have a 1992 F150 needing a drivers side glass (grass guy shot it out for me!). I was actually looking for a window installer until I found your video. Now, I'll be doing it myself! Thank you!!
Great to hear man!🤙 If you take your time it’s not too bad to replace.
Thank you for making this video man I’ve searched and searched for a short and simple video. thank god I found this!
No problem man! 🤙 I’m glad I could help you out! Thanks for watching!
Dude, you just saved my life. I had a bum window motor and tried to pull the window up with channel locks, shattered the damned thing. Went to a junkyard and got it done real quick
Great to hear man!🤙
Thanks for this video. I followed your steps and put my window in place.
No problem man!🤙 I’m glad I could help you out! Thanks for watching!
Dude I was struggling with my window
Thanks to your video it came off in a minute
Literally I took off everything to prime and paint
Thanks
Nice! I’m glad to hear it Andy! You are most welcome!🤙
After watching this (and a few other videos) I decided I'm going to attempt DIY glass replacement on my 93 Bronco XLT. Broke it myself when something happened to the gear (wouldn't raise all the way up) and like an idjut, I put a piece of cloth on it and tried to raise it with needlenose pliers...POW! Shattered. Thanks for this video.
You’ll be fine with this DIY. It’s pretty straightforward. A little lithium grease makes the track attached to the bottom of the glass slide better.
No problem Tina!🤙
Thanks for making this video dude.... Saved me a lot of headache..
No problem man! 🤙 Driving around with a broken window sucks. So I’m glad I could help ya out.
Thanks. Saved a ton of time watching this!
No problem man!🤙 I’m glad I could help ya out. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video. It's very well worth watching.
Thanks man!🤙 I appreciate it!
Thank u sir, I literally just went out and put my window back in....it fell off the rail almost a week ago....👍
You’re welcome man!🤙 Nice! Once you know, it’s a pretty straightforward fix.
thank goodness that the E-150 at the time had basically the exact same door/door design so this is really helpful since i know why my window fell from the top position all the way into the bottom of the door and then bounced back up then shattering all in about 5 seconds
however i would of liked a amazon link at least showing where you bought the glass since i still need to replace mine
That’s good! Here’s the link👇

Need to do one for replacing the corner glass
I’ve pulled the corner glass out and it’s actually not too bad if you take your time. Definitely a bit tedious though. I’ll keep that in mind for a future video.
Thanks man I was having a difficult time, btw carparts.com has the window for 30 plus about 20 to ship it...so got it right at $50 and also alot of parts there are cheap, got door handles for 10 a piece half off from autozone
No problem man!🤙 that’s not bad!
I saw a bullnose(early to mid80s ford) back there oooh it's purdy
montsterCrazyCC Thanks! 82 F100 straight 6, 9” rear, C6 auto.
great video, solved this problem for me
Thanks man!🤙
I always completely removed the vent window assembly and just slide the glass forward
That’s probably easier than my method.
Are power windows different?
Power windows will be similar. You will need to disconnect the switch from the door panel in order to remove the door panel. However, you will still need to raise and lower the window actuator. So you will need to connect the switches for that. Otherwise, it should be a very similar process.
I'm currently bagging with the duct tape 😂.....I have electric windows and I'm switching to manual...it's easier and you can purchase some sweet looking crank handles for them too from Lokar😎👊
My 93 window frame doesn't move like that. And I was hoping you would show putting new window in ...
Did you try inserting the glass into the latch side track first? And then twist the hinge side track a little bit and then get the glass in?
As always, thanks for sharing. I can appreciate what a PIA it is trying to video while you're working the repair, but IMHO, "I'll bring you back.", kind of defeats the purpose when we don't get to see the actual procedure. Maybe a tripod? Anyways, again, thanks for sharing.
ITUMBLE4U Thanks! Yeah I really do need to get a tripod set up. Then you guys could watch me do these trickier jobs. Anyway, I’m glad you enjoyed it!
finally a vidio that helps thank you
Thanks man! 🤙 I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Very helpful, thank you!
No problem man!🤙
What seat do you have in your truck? Looks awesome
Thanks!🤙 That’s the stock bench seat I had reupholstered.
Great video man! Question though is your bench seat reupholstered or is that a cover? It looks great. Truck looks good BTW
Thanks man!🤙 I had the bench seat reupholstered using vinyl. It looks just like leather and fools most people. Thanks! I appreciate it!
@@TheMinuteMasters, do you know what size torque is in the window crank? I can't see it at all. Cheers
@@theAxehound Good question, I can’t remember exactly. I bought a craftsman torx bit set. So I have a few sizes on hand.
Video was helpful just put my window on cutting grass rock hit my driver window
Ah! That’s the worst! Glad I could help.
Easy thanks so much
No problem man!🤙 Thanks for watching!
This was helpful thanks. mind sharing a link to where you purchased door glass for ~$60? Thanks
Kip Hauch Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it! Sure! I bought it on Amazon!

My passenger door got hit by a deer and I've got a new salvage door. My glass is tinted, the salvage is not, so I need to take the glass out of the salvage door to paint it. The glass is all the way up. How do I get the glass down to take it off the regulators with it not being connected to power on the truck? Is there a pin-out diagram I could use to hook a jump box up to the switch or motor to bring it down?
That's a good question. I don't have an answer for you, but I may be able to point you in the right direction.
Assuming your driver's side door is powered and I good working order. I would use a test light and figure out the pins on that door. You would use the test light as a jumper wire between the harness and the window controls. If the test light lights up, then you have found at least a power wire. Then you could then use that information to hook your donor door up to the battery and lower the window glass.
Otherwise if you are on Facebook, join "OBS Revolution" page and post your question there. Someone will be able to help you.
Crazy idea, you could plug the donor door up to the driver's side harness and lower the window glass that way.
I’ve undone the bolt but the brack holding that stabilizer between the windows won’t budge to tilt it inward 😢
Interesting,!can you look down the door cavity and see if anything else is holding the track in place.
@@TheMinuteMasters i finally firured out I had to open the wing window for some give. ‘94 Bronco. I did it 🙌🏼. Couldn’t have done it without your video though. 😉👍🏻
@@wildatheart3182 Great to hear man!🤙 You’re welcome!
Thank you 💯
No problem man!🤙 Thanks for watching!
I just broke the window on my 94 f150 anybody have any ideas where I could start looking? I have looked for some parts cars on Craigslist and such but haven't had much luck
I bought this window glass from Amazon. Here’s the link👇

Got one at local junk yard for $9. Not perfectly clean but ...works. nice, quick video
@@davidbantly5078 That will do the trick! I’m sure a little cleaning snd buffing and it will look almost new.
Thanks man!🤙
if it is a 20 minute job that means I can spend all day doing it.. can't find the right tools, find the tools I need , take the screw out.. lose it , find it lose the screw drive find it , break the glass get new glass buy new screw i cant fine ... late that day finish up
Hahahaha! Yup, you can definitely burn up some time and still get it done in a day.
hey can you do a video on how to replace a vibrating dampaning pully/ crankshaft Pully
Chase Evans It’s funny you as because I want to change my water pump soon and that would be a good time to do it. However, the trick is to clear out as much of the stuff in front of pully (radiator if you can). Once everything is out of the way you can have easy and direct access. Used an impact gun to bust the big bolt holding the pully on or a breaker bar. You have to keep the crank from rotating. Then rent a set of three prong pully pullers and remove the pully. You want to take the serpentine belt pully of the front of the dampening pully in the beginning. That’s pretty much it. Hopefully that helps ya until I can get a video up!👍
thank you mine is bent so I get a little bit of vibration when I drive and now it should be fixed
Chase Evans Gotcha! I’m glad it’s all back to normal then!👍
My window in my Ford 150 Truck is open. The crank won't crank up, I oiled it but it won't budge, any suggestions how to get it to move so I can close my window? Thank you
Have you taken the door panel off and looked inside the door? That may help you found what is keep the window from rolling up.
@@TheMinuteMasters I did, it's stuck at the top of the gear. I'm afraid I'll have to drill out the rivets and see if I can pop it back in place, and If I do that, I might as well buy a new window regulator. I just don't like the idea that the gears are plastic in the new ones. Question, do you think it's possible to pop it back in place? Thank you for your reply.
@@TheMinuteMasters Yes, I have taken off the panel, the gears are stuck at top, I will remove the window regulator. Thank you for trying to help.
@@boogar2960 No problem man!🤙 Good luck!
‘89 f150 I have the glass in but it wont seat in the channel on one side what do i do
Like it won’t stay in the track? Or is the channel worn out?
@@TheMinuteMasters it won’t go in the seal on the vent window side it looks crooked
@@duncantomlinson9208 Weird. Check to see if that track is still firmly attached to the side of the door. My truck that divides the vent window and actual window came loose from the internal frame of the door.
I want to do this too. Did you replace the rubber seal around the window as well? Or does it matter ?
I didn’t replace the seal when I replaced the window but I did replace the lower seals a few years earlier. New seals is always a good idea, especially if yours are original.
@@TheMinuteMasters Yes I have also replaced the lower window seals. Inside and out. Mine were dry rotted and not keeping water out.
@@EKKoSYKESMusic Good man! I do plan to replace the gaskets that surround the parameter of the window glass though.
@@TheMinuteMasters Yeah I’m not sure about the condition of mine they look OK but when I roll my windows down they get hung up and I usually have to push them down from the back. I figured maybe the track was worn out but I also thought it was because of the gasket around it I don’t know either way I need the windows because mine are all scratched so I’m planning on getting new windows and tinting them myself before installing them so it’s easier
@@EKKoSYKESMusic Yeah the window track lacking grease is the biggest culprit for the window not rolling up properly. I had that issue until I replaced the glass. But if you are replacing glass, tinting, etc, you might as well replace the gaskets.
10/10
Thanks man!🤙 I appreciate it!
Can you tell me what year ur truck is
Jake Ficker It’s a 95.
Ok now what did you do to get it back into the twisted track? Mine wont go in
So the track at the bottom of the new window glass is open ended. I just wiggled the window raising mechanism piece into that track. I think you can slide the window raising mechanism into either side of the track but it could be only one side.
Does the shaping of the two parts not line up for you?
@@TheMinuteMasters no it lines up and goes into it but the window itself won't go into the track that you turned
@@Mystery7431 Ah I see! So once you have the window raising mechanism on the window track. You want to bring the glass all the way down inside the door. The window track closest to the door latch doesn’t move much. On my truck the track closest to the hinges has some flexibility. So I put the window glass into the latch side track first then twisting the hinge side track just enough, I managed to get the glass into that track.
@@TheMinuteMasters ill try it. Let's hope it works
@@TheMinuteMasters is a 1995 F150 window the same size as a 1997 F350?
My cruise control doesn't work what could that be? It's a 4.9L straight 6
Chase Evans So apparently the first place to check, if the cruise control doesn’t work is the cruise control deactivation switch underneath the master cylinder. If it stays on it tells the cruise control that the brakes are on all the time which keeps the cruise control off.
You can also check the cruise control/horn fuse to make sure it’s good.
Check those things and let me know what you find.👍
The Minute Master, I tried that and ended up getting my safety latch stuck in my hood which wasn't fun trying to undo. it was a lot of pain and work to try a undo it but thank you for the help. lol
Chase Evans lol gotcha! Yeah if non of the smaller cheaper, easier repairs won’t do it, then you just may need the whole cruise control unit. I would post your problem to a forum first though. That part sounds too expensive for a hunch.
Does that glass fit a 93 f350 dually?
It should. All the window glass for these trucks are the same. F-150 through F350 and broncos are identical.
@@TheMinuteMasters thanks I just left scape yard with a new window and some spare ones
@@Remyred No problem man!🤙 Good find!
a year of the vehicle in the title would be helpful
I can do that.
@@TheMinuteMasters thank you
@@brandonb8449 You’re welcome Brandon!🤙
Anyone have ideas on electric windows on the truck ?
glenn itsallnice Like how to swap manual for electric?
@@TheMinuteMasters No from Electric to manual. I've bought a new motor and fixed it twice, keeps happening, just want to have it be manual
helloglenn That’s what I hear! Plus there’s tons of nostalgia for roll up windows!🤙
Ordered my glass from eBay but it came with no window crank track attached to the bottom of it. Anyone have any idea how to attach that?
Robert Wesner That’s weird. I’d say try using an epoxy or glass adhesive to attach it.
