so whats everyone take on the crappy design of the rear window which leaks water.???

estimate was $250

another guy told me he could seal it for $100 and let me tell you, i got screwed cuz its still leaking.

 

Do it yourself with butyl tape, there are plenty of how to's on these forums. It's not difficult.

 

mine has began to leak in one spot.... i'm gonna try to just put a little clear silicon over it....

 

Don't use silicon I have heard it will not stop it. Fix the leak properly with butyl tape from naps got it for I think bout $20. Easy to fix it yourself. I got a single cab and all I had to do was take headliner down and then take the nuts off the bolts and a little prying and the rear came out easy. Like states before me plenty of other treads of how to do it. Use the search feature toI find them that's what I did.

 

I had the same issue and was told by the glass guy that 98 thru 01 trucks had issues with the window frames cracking. Mine was cracked and I ended up payin 225.00 to have a new factory slider installed. Silicon didnt work for me. If I had it to do over again I would have installed the window myself cause it osnt a hard job to do. Good luck to you

 

when i get these at my shop i charge $125.. R/R the part, go back with urethane, problem solved forever

 

butyl tape FTW! if you can't find any, go to my profile and check out the threads i've started, and i had the same issue, and a few people put up how to's!

 

thanks ll let you guys know what happens, basically i paid this guy $100 so i am going to make him try and fix it haha, worst comes to worse ill just tell him to eff off and cut my losses, buy a single glass window (i had the sliding glass) and just seal it my self. well see how it goes.

 

MY buddy has an 03 f150 and his back window was leaking as well. I had some black silicone around the house so i let him use it. The leak was right next to the rear end light on the cab. It sealed the crack and he hasnt had a leak since. maybe he got lucky
