How to Build Gullwing Windows for the Jeep Cherokee XJ
In this video I remove my rear side windows on the XJ and build some Gullwing Windows that can hold the Rotopax container and also later be used with an internal storage system.
I previously deleted the rear windows about two years ago and replaced them with an aluminium panel that I mounted back in using the original window seal. Since rebuilding the drip rails and painting I decided to go with a gullwing window and later build a inner storage box with a shelf. The cam locks still have not arrived but in the next episode I will build the inner box and mount the locks.
I used internal 170 degree cabinet hinges for the gullwings which required a simple bracket construction on the inside at the top. You can also mount them on the bottom if you would preferer an additional surface.
Its not a mod for everyone as it can make breaking into the jeep easier but if you wheel or travel it could be a good option for side access recovery gear, a camp kitchen, trail tools or whatever you can think of.
Thanks for watching.
