Thanks Jason, just switched out one of my back windows with a pop out window from the same Ebay seller you used. He was a very fast shipper and communication was good. Also instead of sanding, I decided to try both Goo Gone and Goof Off products to remove the adhesive residue. Goo Gone was way better than Goof Off. Just make sure you have plenty of paper towels. But this method allowed me to keep the factory paint. Thanks again Jason for this post! Even though it is two years old it is still giving the community value! Now if I can only find a window delete kit for the other rear window on my Econoline...
Hi Jason, it’s been 2 years since you posted this video and I’d like to say thanks. I purchased 3 windows (2 back- left and right and one side door- smaller one) from the same eBay seller. The items came quick and I’m impressed with how the windows were packed, complete with the hardware and window seal. Your video gave me confidence to do all 3 windows in 7 hrs. Cleaning the old black residue took awhile. Thanks again.
i literally just bought side pop outs for my econoline from the SAME ebay seller. waiting for him to have some back windows too before i do the install. good vid man!
Thanks! I just finished my 2004. At salvage yard I forgot the backing plates for the latches, I had to go with nuts. My additions to your informative video use plastic tools, plastic putty knife, avoid scratching the paint no metal scrapers needed The door doesn’t need immaculate cleaning. After scraping majority of old seal. An acetone-wetted rag will rub off small seal remnants enough so it won’t interfere with new seal. Wear gloves. My old seal was difficult to remove (a sticky rubber paste) from doors, clothes, and skin. Acetone worked for me.
When I had my van I swapped out my fixed glasses for pop out glass but eventually modified my window to swing almost a full 90 degrees with a prop rod and the factory latch still works. I used my factory glass and it had 5% tint because it was a work van that didn’t have the factory steel cover. I did have a window AC mounted in the drivers side rear window before I mounted an RV rooftop heater/ac combo. I also had a 5 kw 240v inverter on my van and installed a second battery behind the passenger headlight. I had the ambulance prep package on mine so it had a 370A alternator. Had to replace the smog pump with an idler pulley from Summit. I had a 96 E350 with a 5.8 and F350 rear axle and front axle and suspension.
Bravo on figuring out how to do the job before making your how-to video. Far too many RUclipsrs posting videos of themselves groping there way through an unfamiliar process.
Right to the point, step by step, gives me a lot more confidence than me alone swearing at the shattered glass 🍷🥂 all over the ground etc... The seal seems rather thin, narrow, for the seal - that's just me. Also, should I have them tinted before installing them?
Just got the same windows from the same seller, looked around in a few yards but none of them had em, they seem hard to find. I’m also converting a van, thanks for sharing!
Jason, great idea and an easy install when you can find the parts. One suggestion, maybe tint the windows so people can’t see in so easily. “Out of site out of mind.” Love your channel and always look forward to your videos. Stay safe and keep “living the dream.”
Yep, I hear ya. I really would like to have rear windows that open in my Econoline conversion van. I had those in my Dev Express conversion, and it's nice. Kind of claustrophobic without windows that open. The side windows are practically worthless. Thanks for the inspection video
HI JASON 👋 WHEN I HAD MINE THEY'RE REALLY NICE , BUT DON'T HAVE THEM OPEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY OR BACK ROADS . WITH THE AIR COMING FROM OVER THE TOP OF THE VAN & FROM UNDER THE VAN ALL THE DUST / DIRT FLOATING AROUND IN THE BACK OF THE VAN WILL END UP INSIDE ALL OVER THE VAN . EVEN WITH CURTAINS UP !
Thank you. I have the same model and will be installing pop outs. I carry motorbikes in the van and pop outs allow air flow while driving to keep the gas fumes from stinking up the inside.
Hey Jason, I know this is an older video but I was wondering how the foam adhesive seal the eBay seller gave you to put on the window frame has held up. Any leaks or anything like that?
Tnx for sharing- nice work. I am a bit surprised by the installation sticky tape I expected something more substantial, like these thick rubber glue type of thing that comes out of a tube on a pressure gun. Like they use to fix permanent car windows. I wonder how it will last in the cold, heat, dust, moisture and vibrations. Let’s hope that it does but would be interested on a longer term update on this and the make of the tape.
Hey Jason, Wonderful video with great detail! Do you know if anyone has been successful in using the existing stock windows and modifying them to accommodate the pop-out hardware? Thanks!
I learned to drive on a 1971 Ford Econoline with the blunt nose of the era. It had the flip-out windows in the rear and I'd sometimes get the whiff of leaded (!) gas exhaust as I drove. Rarely used those windows while moving.
@Holding Line I've got a youtube channel. I don't post regularly but I've got a playlist of my build progress. I'll be putting pop-put windows in eventually. My next project is putting WeldTec Designs 6" lift kit on. Link in my banner. If you're on mobile, I have a video posted with a link to my Vanning channel
@@jjtoman705 I did it. Pop outs on the back. Got some for the side as well but they broke in transit. It was my fault. Luckily I hadn't paid for them yet and it was a junkyard
To remove the frames in a yard just take a flat head wedge it in and slowly twist and brake loose don't force it too much. Also remember to not over tighten the nuts the studs are only in plastic. Had to change the the frame on my big opening window because some stripped out the bolts. Same process for the side door windows
Just nabbed a set from a local junkyard myself. Butyl for the frame to body (3M makes a window seal butyl that is highly recommended), but I’m having a difficult time finding the appropriate bulb seal that goes between frame and glass with the adhesive backing. I understand you bought this as a kit, but did you happen to see any identifying numbers on the bulb seal you used? I’ve yet to install mine, but would love to give that frame to glass seal a refresh on the bench rather than run into leaks later only to remove it all again. Thanks man, love your content.
...actually after rewatching... it didn’t appear you replaced the frame to glass seal, just the frame to body. Curious how that turns out in terms of leaks, most suggest using “3M windo-weld” for the frame to body (essentially it’s a high quality butyl) but it appears you were provided with a bulb type seal. Nonetheless I would still be interested in looking into the build seal you used frame to body, as it appears to be very similar to the seal used on the frame to glass. Wondering if it may be the correct fit for my needs.
I done this too all my vans... Let me give you some advise..Do not let that window edge touch the ground. It will shatter into a million pieces..Why I duct tape the edges. Then put duct tape across the and down.. Till it is in... And always assemble the whole thing on the bench first.. Then install it. As I broke two before... I might add. They make a 12volt fan. That fits in the bottom part. Across the whole bottom...It pops in once the window is open. It has 4 little fans that help pull in or exhaust air..
Yea I think i paid $60 for a set of four of these windows at a junk yard. Was a pain getting the old adhesive off them and cleaning them up. Btw it looks like your drives side door there could use a realignment.
Hi were you camping with the voodoo Crew. I seen a photo in the group. It looked like your van with the group. The creator of the group has a blue Toyota FJ.
Without having watched your video, I would have totally used a sledge hammer and a hammer and chisel to remove the old window; but only after laying down some plastic tarp to catch the shards of course.

This seller is FANTASTIC! Very communicative and packs everything super securely.

OMG, I'm doing mine now and the black tar like glue is horrible. 🤦🏻♀️
I really like those vans . Had to use them lots back in the 90s working for my dad. Contracting . I think it’s the ultimate camping vehicle.
When I had my van I swapped out my fixed glasses for pop out glass but eventually modified my window to swing almost a full 90 degrees with a prop rod and the factory latch still works.

I would love to see what you are describing on the 90 degree windows!
Thanks, I just picked up pop out for my van plan to install them as soon as the weather warms up.
Bravo on figuring out how to do the job before making your how-to video. Far too many RUclipsrs posting videos of themselves groping there way through an unfamiliar process.
Wow, thanks! Is it possible to open them further by making a longer hinge or latch?
Very nice summer is coming and it’s hot here in Oregon and I love it
Right to the point, step by step, gives me a lot more confidence than me alone swearing at the shattered glass 🍷🥂 all over the ground etc...
The seal seems rather thin, narrow, for the seal - that's just me.
Also, should I have them tinted before installing them?
Thanks for sharing your knowledge about changing your van windows and the tools 🧰🪓🦋
Good to see you, can’t wait to see more of your videos. Hope Meghan is doing good.
Just got the same windows from the same seller, looked around in a few yards but none of them had em, they seem hard to find. I’m also converting a van, thanks for sharing!
What a great upgrade. I didn’t even know that was a option. Going to do this to ours now. Thanks for the video.
Hey did you have success finding a pop out window yet? I'm looking, too!
Hey! nothing online ......I was going to go to my local junk yards this week.
I have been looking as well and am in the same boat.
Please comment if, when and where you find some?
Thanks!

I'm painting my vehicle myself, so yeah this was helpful in removing these.
Yep, I hear ya.

Hey this is jimmy aka heathers son aka rosie_riveter_ overland I just subscribed hope you have a fun time camping
I just bought rear and side pop out windows from this seller. Getting ready to install once my louvers come in. Hard to find these anymore.
Tnx for sharing- nice work. I am a bit surprised by the installation sticky tape I expected something more substantial, like these thick rubber glue type of thing that comes out of a tube on a pressure gun.

Easy job to do. Swapped the windows of my ‘95 last year to my new 2000 model which didn’t have the opening windows!
I need these for my Vanbulance!

Good video and tips. Job well done. 👍🏻
Nice work, definite upgrade.
Hi and thanks for the informative video. I heard you say you have a maxx fan. Did you install in the roof and did you use 12volt? Thanks again
Very nicely paced.
I've established that you live in CRR... LOL. ANYWAYS. Good vid. i was lucky enough to have popout stock
thats a badass scar on your right hand
Great job!
Nice job mate well done looking awesome 👍🇬🇧🍺🤘
Good job!Hello from Alberta. 👍😉🇨🇦🌲🔥✌

The install looked really straightforward. I think I’d find a car wash and do a leak test before heading back out to the wild.

Thank so much!!
Excellent video! Thank you! Definitely doing this for my 1998 E250. I wish there was a way to install a screen.
Some people just cut screen to size and use strong magnets from the inside when the windows are open.
Oh man, the sound of the sped up orbital was like every demon in hell stubbing their toes.

Great informational video..well done! Now, I wonder if they make windows for my van....
Good info thank you
Will you add a screen system for buggy nights?
Yes
Nice job and thanks for tutorial. What seller did you buy entire kit from on EBay? Thank you
Good job.
Any extension arm or gadget for the window to open wider?

What is the fan called? Want to look into this!!
@@bloodwolf6955 Seem they updated it..
Acool solar powered car ventilation fan created by Syntron
Got a link?
Well done...
Awesome channel Jason!!!! What V8 engine does you E350 have?
Mosquitos will like the windows also😉
Hey Jason, What about bugs how are you going to keep them out?
i can’t find window seal tape on ebay seller.
then do i use 3m double side tape?
Thank you! Have you noticed any water leaks?
Where are you doing that at? Are you in the new Primal Outdoors Lair?!
Yea I think i paid $60 for a set of four of these windows at a junk yard. Was a pain getting the old adhesive off them and cleaning them up. Btw it looks like your drives side door there could use a realignment.
All the doors need a little realigning its on the to do list.
Jason
Do you think it's possible to put the pop out hardware on my current windows? I don't want to have to put privacy screen on new windows..
The hardware won't work on the non opening windows
@@PrimalOutdoors Thanks, I'll just redo it then!
Anyone know of the name of the socket with the square head to remove the windows?
Come on man!!!! Everyone knows the 10mm is the one socket that’s always lost!!!
The black banding around the windows are different.
Thank you for mentioning not to have the windows open during driving. It will suck in carbon monoxide from the exhaust.
So true.
Hi were you camping with the voodoo Crew. I seen a photo in the group. It looked like your van with the group. The creator of the group has a blue Toyota FJ.
I did hang out one evening
Jason
I'm part of that group. I'm starting my build. I have a 2013 f-150 fx4.
Did you video that evening. I'm close to Eugene. Maybe I will see you on camping one day.
living in your van, where did you do this window replacement? Do you rent a storage unit?
Yes, I rent 13x46 ft RV storage and use it for storage and a shop.
Jason
Still have the 250?
Yes
💪😎👍
JASON THIS IS THE NEWEST PHONE NUMBER I'VE HAD .
Damn shame this seller is nowhere to be found. Trying to source others has been a pain.
Did you find anything?
What about mosquitoes can you put a screen on it
I am going to make one
That looks like a great shop, is it yours or?
It’s an RV storage unit that I rent.
Jason
@@PrimalOutdoors WOW! A storage unit with electrical. That's great.
Just don’t drive with them open. Those windows suck in exhaust while you’re driving. My dad had one and I’m speaking from experience lol.
Without having watched your video, I would have totally used a sledge hammer and a hammer and chisel to remove the old window; but only after laying down some plastic tarp to catch the shards of course.
Too many windows in a van lets the stank out.
Word of advise, you should never use power tools on a window.
Wow.
I agree.
Holy cow you've been talking for 10 minutes and you haven't got to the repair
