This document is an exploded parts (break-out) diagram showing the rear cab window assemblies for a Ford truck cab — covering both the fixed rear glass and the sliding/movable glass (slider) versions. The upper-left illustration shows the cab rear window opening with the standard fixed glass, moulding, cover, and standard weatherstrip. Lower-left cross-section details show the fixed glass installation with both standard and optional weatherstrip, moulding, and cover. The large main exploded view details the sliding window assembly, identifying each component: multiple weatherstrips, retainers, the frame and glass, front bar, run assembly rear bar, run channels, stops, springs, latch, striker plate, handle with spring pin, rivet, bracket, spring washer, vent window, moulding, and the movable glass panel with its frame. A partially cropped caption at the bottom identifies it as a parts break-out diagram for fixed and slider glass, apparently referencing 78-79 applicability. A reader can learn the names and relative positions of every component in the fixed and sliding rear window systems, useful for disassembly, reassembly, or ordering replacement parts, though no part numbers, torque values, or dimensions are given.
