Rear window latch replacement Access Cab

Seems the Achilles heel of the Access Cab are the fragile rear window latches.

Anyone have a great fix, or aftermarket solution or product to suggest? I need to replace or fix pronto.

Thanks!

 

Quarter glass in the half door or rear slide window?

 

The rear side doors. I should have been more specific. Both trucks have broken latches. 2000 and 2002 model years, both access cabs.

 

I have these from a different vendor on mine.

Billet aluminum. May need to file out where the pins go because mine were a tight fin pushing the roll pin into these. Used a c-clamp. I also had to bend the metal bracket that's on the door towards the inside of the cab for a better seal. Just slightly bent.

A new OEM one if you can find one runs about $35-$40 last I looked if you break it.

 

I didn't realize this was such a common issue. I'll be ordering the aluminum ones. They seem easy to install. I did see a guy with a YT video solution and he used a zip tie which he claimed held well for 5 years. So that's a nearly free option for anyone not wanting to spend 10-15 bucks.

You can still lock the window tight and never open it again. You just need to work the Swing Arm Mojo into the slot. Its a double Handed Move, but doable for beginners. Both my latches have been broken for years and I’ll get around ‘Tuit’ one day. Thing is I don’t care to open the rear windows anymore due to road noise introduction.

 

I have the same/similar aluminum replacements. They work well.

 

Is the Amazon link for a single window? For $13

 

They’re all over eBay for less, just gotta wait for the slow boat from China-
