Default Re: 47 Truck Door Question

Between runners and parts rigs I have six of these trucks. I'm hard pressed to find any good door glass. Sheesh. Harder use? Funny just yesterday I was chasing rattles in my tonner, and I noticed the steel wrap on the windows is pinched in such a way that the door fuzzy channel should be the same with or without the frame. And just to be clear, yes I agree it was done to add strength to the door glass. Did it help? Sometimes.....
