Title: Rear pop out window hinges ?
Post by: Late Models Best on August 21, 2009, 09:17:07 PM
I have wrote about this subject before.  I have had no luck in finding any NOS pop out window hinge clips. Has anybody come up with making the pop out windows work by hingeing the window to the post? Or using a part from another car.   Any help is appreciated.

Hey! I haven't talked to you in years! We first met before fordpinto.com was around! Well, I do know that dennis carpenter makes the hinge clips. Pintony told me that some time ago. A friend ordered them. They are for the late 70's Ford Trucks with the extended cab. You need to call them and say that you are looking for the clips for the truck. They are not listed on their site BUT they do have them. Do not say they are for a PINTO. Mid to late 70's Ford full size trucks with the pop out extended cab windows. I hope this works out for you. I will ask my friend but he is kind of flakey (like me).

PS, you might remember my car which i am sure I have sent you pix of.

I know this topic is really old, but I broke my driver's side hinges replacing the weatherstrip the other day. I tried Dennis Carpenter, and the referred me to LMC Truck.

Here is a link to the product page there (number 5 in the 'Side Window and Molding' section toward the bottom of the page): http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/FC/full.aspx?Page=12

They're not cheap, at $19 each x4, plus another $19 in shipping. Just wanted to update this topic for anyone that it might help.

Are these the wagon style or the hatch style?  They are different.

They look like the wagon style to me, but I could be wrong!

Wagon Style.

depending on the type of pop-out window you have they look like the ones I used on my hatchback.

I got the hinges today from LMC.  Other than the tabs ( clip off easy ) on the window side of the assy, they are identical to the factory ones.  Install took less than 5 min each side.  If you dont have the original plastic pin that goes into the assy, you will have to find a substitute.  They are a pretty tight fit and seal good.  Be sure to not catch the window weather stripping between the hinge and the post when you install.  I did not try to remove after install.  I found a second company that supplies these exact ones for a few bucks less.  I am working on getting a qty quote from them to see if we can do a group buy since these little guys are so expensive. 

I will let everyone know soon.....

Thanks,

FracMonkey

Please keep us posted. Very interested in getting some. It's a shame that you need 4 per car and they are sooooo expensive.

Price looks OK to me. Cheap when compared to some things I've bought.  ;D

Does someone have a link or phone number for these? The ones on my wagon are not tight like they used to be.

Why so many? Two on a car, are you doing two cars?
Title: Re: Rear pop out window hinges ?
Post by: jeremysdad on April 19, 2014, 05:00:50 AM
4 per car, 2 per side...unless the price is for a 2 pack, then I only need 2.

It says 'each' in the listing, so I assumed I needed 4. lol

Quick research shows they are shared with the super cab trucks, as well. Part number "D2FZ7330212A", Green Sales shows to have 8.

You will have to call them, though. :)
