    Thanks! I like the flareless look personally, little more streamline. My old flares were starting to fade and warp so it was an easy decision for me

    Didn't know they were the same. Thought they were separate incidents, so I wanted to bring it to your attention. I'm not on Instagram.

    Yeah, just note that the extension adapter looks slightly different from what the OP has pictured. The hole on the jack adapter (at least on the one delivered to me) is more like 34.5mm than 36.5mm, so the shims are too wide and you do have to hammer down on the crosspin deal and fold those shims into cones to get it to fit. No wiggle whatsoever, though.

    I know I have seen people talking about this before and I had a page bookmarked where I could get them but I don't have that bookmarked anymore for some reason. ANYWAYS my windows are getting bad and I need to replace the trim. My question is do I just need the bottom piece of do I need to do the whole window? And does anyone have the link for the stuff I need?

    Is that a tack weld on your alignment tab? Mine is bent over and I am considering doing this..

    May give it a shot. I don't want to tear it apart for the gussets just yet.

    a bunch of people have done this with great results, myself included. My alignment guy loved it as well. go thick on the tack or even run a tiny bead behind the whole tab, just be careful not to ruin the tab with the weld. :thumbsup:

    The red line is the belt molding, the white line is the window run weatherstrip. Looks like you can get away with doing just the window run.
    I did both because they were moldy and coming apart.

    Thank you. The back connection isn't much better so I will probably do both pieces. Fronts aren't bad yet but Im sure they will need it sooner or later.
    Got a part number or link for my lazy ass?

    Also because I don't think I am seeing the right Window Run part

    Here you go lazy ass. JK

    This is the part list I have.
    You have to make sure you get the year correct and also whether it's a standard, access or dual cab.
    Ctrl+F to open the Find box then type "window" (without the quotes) and press enter.

    As said, you can buy just the bottom trim piece and install it. Old one just pops off, new one just pops on. Easy peasy.
