Classic parts lists these for 47-50. Wonder if maybe a PO put in an earlier door?

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.

Was wondering if maybe I don't need it-Thanks Bill | | | | | Joined: May 2015 Posts: 9,828 Housekeeping (Moderator) Making a Stovebolt Bed & Paint and Body Shop Forums | | Housekeeping (Moderator) Making a Stovebolt Bed & Paint and Body Shop Forums Joined: May 2015 Posts: 9,828 | 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
