Scooner Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 It measures about 14" wide and about 53" long. I held it up by the back of my 1st Gen and it's not quite right. It was in the back of the parts car, i thought it kind of looked like one from an early S-10 pickup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbosubarubrat Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Doesn't look right to be one out of a second gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooner Posted December 7, 2014 Author Share Posted December 7, 2014 Yeah, the angle of sides is off. Thanks for sharing a pic i really appreciate that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloyale Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 The factory slider on second gens is 2 overlaping glass panels......and each on slides form the edge.....not the middle.. those are definately not 2nd Gen Brat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooner Posted December 7, 2014 Author Share Posted December 7, 2014 The length is also probably a dead giveaway at 53" wide, guess i'll start looking at the rear sliders on some small pickups and see if it 's a match. I'd rather sell it then throw it away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbosubarubrat Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 (edited) The factory slider on second gens is 2 overlaping glass panels......and each on slides form the edge.....not the middle.. those are definately not 2nd Gen Brat. The pic i showed is the rear slider out 2nd gen 83 dl. I got the whole brat for free. All i had to do was to haul it way since it was sitting on a new house owners property and was about to go in the dumpster because of a remodel. The brat was rusty as they came rockers gone, bed gone, and tail gate hinges rusted off(i've seen worse though) Edited December 7, 2014 by turbosubarubrat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hsoj Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 I thought there were a few different styles of rear sliders through out the years. Its been a topic here before. Been a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomRhere Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 All 5 of the BRATs I've owned have had the "2 pane slide to center" ones. '82, '84, '85, and 2 '86's. The one TSB posted pics of might be an after market or dealer installed one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
