Goblin22 Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 when i bought my mj the glass slider was broke and replaced with a piece of plastic. can i just replace the glass or do i have to buy a whole new window. if i can just replace the glass where could i buy some at?
jeepsouth Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 I would think an auto glass co. could help you out with a replacement pane. :cheers:
Eagle Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 I'm wondering the exact same thing. My brother managed to bust my rear slider and one of the fixed side panes this winter (idjit). I'm hoping there's a way to repair/replace.
btm24 Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 Do you think any of these will work? http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=jeep+comanche+accessories&hl=en&safe=off&prmd=ivns&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=8074439897402809117&sa=X&ei=uKSKTcreGIS6tgfhxsWKDg&ved=0CHsQ8wIwAQ# Brandon

The factory window has a single slider, and all we're looking for is replacement glass.
duster1971 Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 No promises but I have a buddy that woked for a auto glass company I will do some checking and get back to you. My bigest question is do you want temperd or sheel glass? They come with temperd but is lil pricy.

duster1971 Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 No go for glass sorry guys I tryed. The other 3 comanches I have seen in my area all have. Single slider windows in them. Mabe yours was orderd with double slider idk culd just be year of the mj aswell.
shelbyluvv Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 More than likely it was replaced at some point. All factory MJ sliders I have seen are 3 pane. I prefer the solid glass window though.
xjrev10 Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 City Auto Glass, I guess I don't know if they are a big chain or just a northeastern mn chain of auto glass installers, told me they could still get a 3 piece sliding rear window for my my for the small price of 268 dollars installed :yes:

Brandon Edit: see
acfortier Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 I've wondering this myself, I've got a 2-pane slider and it doesn't seem like it is a replacement. I do need a piece of glass for it too, but not sure how to go about it.
duster1971 Posted March 24, 2011 Posted March 24, 2011 my best advice is to find a local glass place and see if they can have a peice cut and placed in the existing window for you either that or find another rear window. i culd of had the glass orderd but they said not unless they had the window to compair it to and seeing how mine is completly gone i can't have any peices cut for it wich sucks big time. the rear glass seems to be the most common brokin glass :fs1: . mine evin has the drivers side vent window busted out and replaced with plexi :( i have a spare but just my luck its passenger side.
Karlo Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 I have the same problem too: one busted pane in my rear window, the fixed one behind the driver. Nobody seems to have come up with a good solution yet so I am posting so I can be notified if anyone ever does.
64 Cheyenne Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 Here is my solution. Best I can do to help, might work for some. When I got the Chief, the center pane was busted out (was 3 piece). I replaced it with another slider. I propose a thread where those that have slider pieces can offer them for whatever. I'll start, I still have the old slider that was replaced here. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=19487 The glass will come out but the frame has to be disassembled to do it. Either pane is available for offers under a million bucks, plus shipping. can't really send the whole frame unless you really want it. Probably cost a million to ship it. not really worth it as used sliders are still out there for a lot less. I'd prefer to only let the glass go as needed IE: I need the left side.
HOrnbrod Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 As stated ad nauseum many many times here, the factory regulation MJ sliding rear window was 3-pane, p/n 55004224. If you have a 4-pane slider, it's aftermarket, and was available as a dealer installed option or whatever. Like mine. :D Wish I had the 3-pane though.
Sir Sam Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 I lucked out, my MJ came with a 4 pane tinted(in the glass tint). Exactly what I wanted too. Hope nothing ever happens to that cause I doubt I'm ever gonna find a replacement.
SouthShore440 Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 in my chevy someone busted the slider and driver side pane in a failed attempt to steal my truck. i replaced with 3/16 plexiglass and its been good since. hold the material up to the window frame you are looking to fill. trace the part and add to the perimeter for the gasket/window channel. also i have never seen a comanche with a double slider. nice to have.
Lewt2007 Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 I lucked out, my MJ came with a 4 pane tinted(in the glass tint). Exactly what I wanted too. Hope nothing ever happens to that cause I doubt I'm ever gonna find a replacement. like this one i put a slider in after the flat glass rear window shattered into a million pieces and I'm still cleaning glass out of the back of the cab behind the seats in the truck
