phokur Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 Well, being an idiot I shattered my rear window. I have a solid but would really like a slider glass. The glass place says they do not make the slider glass for the Comanche which I know is a lie. Where should I try to get it?
larrymo Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 My '87 MJ has the factory slider glass and it is still intact. You might try finding an auto glass shop in your area...or go here: http://www.windshields.com/default.aspx Put in your Comanche info and zip code for auto glass dealers in your area. Larry
JeepcoMJ Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 where are you located? I have four complete 3 pane FACTORY sliding rear windows. complete with the frame, 3 panes, and latch...
dave92cherokee Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 Actually if I'm not mistaken the original three pane slider rear windows are no longer made and there are no aftermarket ones that are still made for our MJ's. I'm trying to find slider windows from other trucks like s10 and such that could be used in a replacement.
SW86 Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 my slider glass broke and i don't know what to do short of having someone cut a piece for it.
Rymanrph Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 I bought mine here: http://www.glasswarepro.com/2221482-ite ... l#-2221482 Looks like they have 12 in stock. Its an after market piece. Doesn't fit as good as factory, but it works and the opening is pretty big. I'm happy with mine.
cluricaunne Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 you could try this place too: http://www.dkhardware.com/product-30693-etrv700bt-tri-vent-three-panel-truck-sliding-window-with-dark-gray-glass-for-1986-1992-jeep-comanche.html
Eagle Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 Well, being an idiot I shattered my rear window. I have a solid but would really like a slider glass. The glass place says they do not make the slider glass for the Comanche which I know is a lie. Where should I try to get it? Why do you think this is a lie? There are some aftermarket rear sliders available that will (sort of) fit a Comanche if you replace the entire window, but the glass for the actual factory slider hasn't been available for years.
JeepcoMJ Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 i agree with Eagle. the aftermarkets just don't fit that well.
JeepcoMJ Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 my slider glass broke and i don't know what to do short of having someone cut a piece for it. which piece broke? replacing the broken piece requires removing the whole window and frame, but it's worth it...I probably have that piece.
jimoshel Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 I got a piece of plexiglass and made my own.
phokur Posted October 27, 2010 Author Posted October 27, 2010 You guys are awesome! My '87 MJ has the factory slider glass and it is still intact. You might try finding an auto glass shop in your area...or go here: http://www.windshields.com/default.aspx Put in your Comanche info and zip code for auto glass dealers in your area. Larry Thanks! Looking into it. where are you located? I have four complete 3 pane FACTORY sliding rear windows. complete with the frame, 3 panes, and latch... I live in Maryland, I would love to buy one if shipping isn't horrendous. Let me know what you want shipped to 20685. I bought mine here: http://www.glasswarepro.com/2221482-ite ... l#-2221482 Looks like they have 12 in stock. Its an after market piece. Doesn't fit as good as factory, but it works and the opening is pretty big. I'm happy with mine. Thanks, I may go with that one if I can't get a factory. you could try this place too: http://www.dkhardware.com/product-30693-etrv700bt-tri-vent-three-panel-truck-sliding-window-with-dark-gray-glass-for-1986-1992-jeep-comanche.html Or that one, thanks.

Well, I should be more specific. They told me my truck never came with sliders and I have seen them on the road and online. Didn't think that they might only discontinue the slider and leave the solid but I guess that is what happened.
SW86 Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 ive got a plexi one too :D but the a-hole before me screwed it in, instead of well,,,, ANY OTHER WAY! lol sucks too cause i always reach to open it. and JeepcoMJ, on mine the slider its self broke. the outer two panes are good. if you've got one for decent price, ill buy it. plus ive got to re-seal my back glass anyway :thumbsup:
XJs4Ever Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Just busted mine too. 2nd one in 2 yrs. If God made it able for us to kick our own arse, I'd be in the hospital this morning.
XJs4Ever Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 where are you located? I have four complete 3 pane FACTORY sliding rear windows. complete with the frame, 3 panes, and latch... Hey Bro. Do you still have any MJ rear glass? Solid or slider it don't matter. I found one link in the thread and can have a slider shipped for $170 but I just want glass up before snow comes. Thanks man Rick in CO
thejim42 Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 I broke the middle pane that actually slides on my 88 last night... can I just get that slider? I know on the Dakotas I've had there is a way to pop the middle pane out and replace it
MtnClimber Posted November 2, 2013 Posted November 2, 2013 Or just buy this: http://boston.craigslist.org/bmw/pts/4164567303.html
92tanMJ Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 So did anyone ever get one of these? Any advice on a 3 pane vs 4 pane? http://www.dkhardware.com/product-30693-etrv700bt-tri-vent-three-panel-slider-with-dark-gray-glass-for-1986-1992-jeep-comanche.html http://www.glasswarepro.com/2221483-item-EDV700LT-CRL-Duo-Vent-Four-Panel-Slider-with-Light-Gray-Glass-for-1986-1992-Jeep-Comanche.aspx
thejim42 Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 i went to home depot and got a piece of plexi glass cut it to the right measurement and glued my latch on it and you can't tell the difference. its a good temporary fix

snakedoc67 Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 I smashed the drivers side section on my slider, went to an Ace Hardware and put plexi in its place.
