Thank you! The only way is to have someone close the tailgate as much as possible while another removes the two 11mm bolts. reverse for installation. if your doing it alone, you need to be careful and hold a towel over the body bracket to contain it when it goes flying. BE CAREFUL

If I disconnect that safety switch like you did at 16:50 for the tailgate latch. Will i then be able to move the window whenever? Or do I have to wire it a certain way?

This just eliminates the “tailgate shut” switch. Meaning you could accidentally open the glass with the tailgate down.

Excellent video, Chris. I may advise caution when using a cordless impact on the screws that secure the window. I’ve seen the vibration shatter the glass in some instances. Hope this helps someone. Keep up the good work, Chris!!

[@agar4278]

Excellent video! Can't wait for part two....almost every part of my 1985 tailgate window components has been replaced with the exception of the side channels and the slides where the window attaches.....new motorcraft motor, new regulator, new felts, new glass, etc. It still doesn't want to go up and down, as it binds in the middle of its travel. Once it gets past the mid point, up or down, it moves better, but it requires assistance. When the tailgate is up, you can see that when it goes up, it isn't following the path of the channel in the hard top, it is tilted further forward, toward the inside of the vehicle. I have to get in the back of the Bronco and apply outward pressure for the window to close. I am also wondering if the motor could be wired through a relay so that it gets full voltage? Anyhow, great video! Can't wait for more.....

Hey man, had to hit this up again because I finally got a new tailgate shell that I’m going to get painted and swap everything out. However, I think my tailgate motor isnt working and the window is in the down position(no response from the key or the switch and I dont hear the motor working).I know you said I can Hotwire it to a battery, but what if the motor is bad? I’m not sure but I’m just looking for some ideas on how to work on this.

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

If you cannot Hotwire it, you’ll need to drill a hole in the regulator and access the bolts and just remove it

[@caseyssweetrides3929]

Do these instructions also apply to the 2nd gen bronco (78-79)? I'm about to rebuild my tailgate and am curious if there are any differences in the procedure. Thanks!

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Yes it does. A few things are different. But the regulator ect ect is the same.

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

[@genedavenport7615]

I really enjoyed your and understood very clear on the 3-part video on the tailgate. However, you didn't show or made mention whether or not you had or could have a problem with the removal of the hinge bolts at the tailgate bottom and should it be sprayed with JB penetrating catalyst and how long are these 3-14mm bolts?

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Thanks! Removing those bolts is usually a big pain due to the corrosion at the bottom of the tailgate. Up in Michigan it’s not an issue because they just tear right out. Due to the rot. I would soak them for a couple days. And then slowly work them back-and-forth until they break free.

[@genedavenport7615]

@@BroncosandPartsGarage I asked how long are the bolts and didn't receive any answer to this question so please answer the question posed.

[@ryancnew]

I love the channel. I have a 1996 Bronco with a tailgate that has metal separating at the top right corner. The body shop i took it to (Maaco) is not comfortable welding it and repainting; they say they don’t have the equipment to do it. This was a California Bronco for most of its life, so everything else on the tailgate is fine - I’ve replaced all the internals using your guidance and parts supplier referrals. I found a replacement tailgate that will cost $800, which is more than I believe the weld should cost. As well, the final look of a welded repair is probably fine relative to the value the new door brings. How do I you suggest I could guide the body shop on how to weld it properly? Or is there a better way to get this done, such as metal shop or something?

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Thanks for watching!! I’m not a welder unfortunately. If the tg is splitting, especially on the passenger side, welding it may not be a long term solution. What cause it to crack will just move to a new location. Are you using a spare tire mount?

[@ryancnew]

@@BroncosandPartsGarage thank you for responding! yes sir the tire mount is likely to be the problem. I was able to find someone to weld it and it looks like it’ll get me through the paint job - hopefully will last another 27yrs :)

You could simply remove the motor, have someone hold the glass in the upright position and reinstall a new motor. It’s very simple. 3 screws. The plug should be u set the speaker hold though.

This video is quite useless for folks if the window motor is non op, and the window is stuck down? How do you disconnect the window from the track, especially on the driver side (harness is in the way). And how do you get to the fourth bolt in that holds the window regulator to gate?

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Thanks for the inquiry. I’ve yet to see a completely burned up motor. That said, the glass tracks can still be unbolted from the outside of the tailgate. And the glass will have some wiggle room due to the ability to bend the regulator arms a bit. Remove the two top seals, remove glass from regulator and then use a step drill to drill thru regulator plate to access removal bolts. Then email me for a used regulator. Where there is will, there is a way. Or break glass and replace for $100
