    My power sliding rear window stopped closing. It sounds like a gear has stripped. I was able to manually close it.
    My question is how do I remove the rear seat back so I can access the window motor?

    You will have to unbolt the seats and lift them up to get the hooks out of the brackets. Once you are done with the repair, do the double cab seat fold down mod.

    I forgot to mention that the motor and cables are all one piece.

    Thanks, The seat mod looks good. I haven't had time yet to undertake this project yet. I'm working on the evap canister as well as a bunch of yard work.
