Got the new window in the 51. Found in the inside panel the aforementioned GCG,do I really need it?
Classic parts lists these for 47-50. Wonder if maybe a PO put in an earlier door? Thanks Bill

aforementioned GCG??

Did you mean to reply to a previously posted thread?

I'm not really understanding your question. If your window is installed, leftover parts are immaterial. Toss them in the proverbial coffee can.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

There is a metal channel on the back of the door that's held in by a couple of screws on the '51. If that isn't in place, the glass will be loose when it's rolled down. Their catalog is in error, as that's used in the later trucks as well. It goes in opposite the division bar with glass channel on your vent window assemblies.
It's shown in the FAM on Section 1, sheet 22.00
