Finally dialed in my ebike carrier with a thule swingout and dirt bike carrier. Cost me less than $200 total, finding the thule rack on FB marketplace for $165 and ordering the dirt bike carrier from Amazon for a great price. I really want to do a pass thru into the cab from the bed of the truck. Has anyone completely removed the rear cab window to do something similar? or has anyone figured out a removable window or full roll down setup?

Nice setup. What's with the chopper-ish fork rake / trail on that bike??
thank you! and I would have to figure that out. It is still the same as it was stock on the schwinn occ chopper. That wasn't manipulated. Looking it up online, it looks like it is 45 degrees. This is the stealth stingray, but same specs as the occ chopper

Thank you, I've seen this brand. looks like they finally have my year on the website. I just wonder if it's worth it for that price rather than just running canvas to connect them. After shipping, tax, and the removal of the stock window, that would probably all wrap up around $1,000. I'm about to just break the rear cab window and remove my flippac window. canvas just came in last week. My lockable handle for the flippac broke in the locked position a few weeks ago. That was the final thing to make me set these plans in motion. Being stuck outside of your house is lameee hahah

I have considered just removing the windows and buying the rubber accordion seal used on semi cabs. My need is to reduce the temperature in the cargo bed using the cab air conditioning, ambient air temps over 110 with bed temps even higher. Also a way to sleep in the back of a gladiator with the toppers door closed.

I researched this a few years ago planning to remove the front window from a Super Pacific wedge camper and pass through to my Tundra crew cab which already had the roll down rear window. I just didn't want water/dust intrusion between them. There are several types out there. Just to be clear I never got around to doing it.

Yeah I thought about the accordion gasket as well. Waterproof canvas was only 10 bucks for probably 5 times the amount required though hahah

Thanks a lot. I just ordered 6 windows for different model trucks and I don't even own a truck.

If she doesn't pop out of one of them like that when I open the box I'm gonna be really pissed. They better cover return shipping.
Any luck?
