Default Electric to manual windows?

Anyone ever change electric windows over to manual on a Econoline? How difficult is it?

Hi Rusty,
I believe one easy way would be to just switch the whole door. Most likely will need to make color match.

That's the problem. Mine has a custom paint job. Never would get the color close. If I could get all the stuff off a door with manual, is it a bolt on or welded? Besides, have you ever pulled the door pins on one of these vans? Wow, what a job.

The pins were difficult enough when just a couple of years old, but I can imagine what a job they must be now.
