Hi Guys,
has anyone seen an aftermarket rear side window for a 75 series troopie that lifts up instead of slides??
Same idea to what they put in some of the ute canopies

Gidday Dave, I have done what you are asking about 3 years ago on my troopy. The work was done by a marine window maker and although a great job was done the rear pair cost me $1500.00. Safety glass was used with lockable handles that folded flat so as not to caught on scrub and trees.
A few things I would like to point out from my experiences with these windows, they are brilliant!!. I would reconsider using glass and just use sheet metal which would cut the cost considerably and next time I would do all 4 windows if I have no rear passengers. On one side I have built a box that is now my kitchen so that for quick stops etc. I only have to open the side window.
I can arrange for a photo to be sent to you if you require one.
