Bronco Tailgate Emergency Access Templates

These allow 4 holes to be drilled in the tailgate inner skin for access to the glass channel nuts when the glass is fully down AND the motor is dead, or seized, or the regulator is mechanically locked. Once the nuts are removed, the glass can be raised and the motor or regulator repaired.

But it's stupid to drill into the t/g. Remove the inside access panel (#2 Phillips x10), and reach inside to get the four 7/16" (11mm) nuts off the glass regulator tracks. It might be tight to get the wrench on & the nuts off, but it's better than having holes in the t/g.
