One piece window kit 87 GMC
« on: March 19, 2013, 10:13:34 PM »
Well I'm fixing to BITE THE BULLET and order the kit. Anyone tell me anything about them, GOOD, BAD, indifferent ?????. I watched the video on the install, looks pretty straight forward.

well i´ve never installed or had one... but i have seen them and they really look clean and nice... i was on their website and the flush rear window kits look great too... they´re about 245 i don´t its expensive... seems like a decent price... the side windows go for over 600 seems like a lot at first... but after you think about all the work that goes into these kits i don't think their at all that expensive.. a single vent window can go for over 400 or a window for about 60+ each and the channel kit about 100... compare that to 600 for an awesome single window kit with no whistling at highway speeds or water sometimes seeping in (issues with the vent windows).. makes me want to get a kit too...

We sell them cheaper than you can get them from OPP...
I have sold over a hundred + of them.  Best advice, FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS.  The 73-87 kits are pretty simple installs.  Previously I had all kind of calls where some shop/ownerwanted to re-engineer it and screwed it up or didn't read the installation instructions.

what do you mean not much posted?  As in a ton of parts or?  Keep in mind you are talking to the whole company when you reply, I am not Classic Parts, but I am working to get more stuff, just hard to find the suppliers.

i apologies for such a mistake... i never thought about clicking the year of the truck all i would do is click interior for example and duh nothing showed up but if you click your year its a whole ´nother world... i guess its because i dont spend much time browsing around...

I put one in my 87 short step and it is fantastic......     My advice is to be sure to put the re-inforcing bar in the sill top (where you rest your arm when you drive)   I did not at first and had to take it apart and put the steel bar in place... No Biggie, I used JBWeld and it is tight and quiet.    The mirrors are rock solid.

Looking forward to it Vile.  I have mine slated to go in my Blazer but it is on hold until I get the 87 going.
