Surprised no one has replied yet.....

AFAIK, you CAN replace JUST the rear window BUT it takes almost as much work to replace as the whole top. The top and the sides just zipper in and out but the bottom of the window must be riveted to the frame rail / rain channel or some ish.

The old rain channel has be be drilled off, no big deal to do. It doesn't have to be riveted back on, the rear top retaining nuts will hold it just fine.

Its about a 2-3 hr job for me.

I read somewhere that a guy named moparacker can do it in 2-3 hours. Not sure what thread it's in though. I'll PM you his screen name if I come across that thread again.
