Turning the side windows upside down.

[Versatile]

On my B700/Thomas I can turn the windows upside down in about 10 minutes each. I just need to grind off a bit of aluminum on the original bottom corners.Any draw backs from doing it?

Looks good to me. A large window on the bottom that opens up wards like in a house and screens on the bottom. Now air comes across my body and not over my head.

Looks like it is easier to pull thr windows for painting, clean them reinstall with sealant.

There is a YouTuber that has a video on it. He flips them over and turns them around so he can put a screen on the outside.

Please post it if you find it. I don't understand the "turns them around" part. That would put the latched on the outside... I would like to have our windows open bottom up, but a video of how easy it is will help me be enticed to cut out 20 perfectly sealed windows.

Nevermind it's here!

Look up, I posted it.
He flips them upside down, then removed the window, turns it latch side out, then install it with the bottom window inside and the return outside. That leaves a space for a screen.

Thank. I only noticed it after responding.

I would only do it if you turn them inside out.. the issue otherwise is that your mobile sash is on the bottom outside which will invite lots of water in..

What is a mobile sash?

[Njsurf73]

That's the idea. It puts the sash inside, allowing the stationary window to be out board. Plus a bonus is it gives a spot to mount a screen. It's a bit of work, but I will do it to a few just so we don't get eaten alive.

mobile as in moveable.. if you look at how a skoolie window is made, the upper window is on the outside .. the water runs off and drips on the ground for the most part.. if you simply flipped the window over then your moving sash is on the bottom outside.. so water will tend to collect on the lower sash frame and probably run into the bus..

by him flipping the window around, he keeps it so the upper window is still on the outside...
