sureshot007 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Is it possible two swap the little folding windows on the doors so that they push out from the front? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula69 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Hmmmm....never thought about that before, but the mounting brackets/pins would have to be modified, and the gasket would probably prevent it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I don't really see it happening. Why do you want it to do that? Every one I've had you could turn about 160 degrees out so it acted as an air scoop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sureshot007 Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 I haven't installed the doors yet, so I forgot that they do flip out that far. So that might just work. I need them to act as air scoops for when we are racing - it gets awfully hot in that thing with the windows rolled up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990 Pioneer 4x4 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 could turn about 160 degrees out so it acted as an air scoop. :agree: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudhunter Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Mine don't open, that must be another option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 A lot of them don't have the wing/smoker windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would greatly improve airflow if not already installed. Also, you could get some of those do it yourself sunroof's, and install them backwards to work like an air grabber. Don't forget that you might also be able to put some sort of vent in by the kickpanel to let some fresh air in by your feet. But you are going to have to cut sheetmetal. Rob L.

sureshot007 Posted September 12, 2009 Author Share Posted September 12, 2009 Rear window is plexi, so I am trying to figure out if I can make a new one think enough to support a sliding window. I'm probably going to add a roof scoop at some point as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildman Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Ya know..........with your "new" rear window, a sliding section could be added :brows: There's no way the wing vents could be reversed, the "bow" of the frame is side set, and the main glass would not work in the track. If you ever get a chance, with the fan on high, set on vent, and a sliding rear window, the air really flows thru the cab with the windows rolled up :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvusse Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 When I open the those windows, and the rear window, the air flows in through the rear, and out the sides. Installing my topper makes the airflow stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
