My Peterbilt 379 has the standard setup of a manual crank for the driver window and an air-operated passenger window. I have seen some trucks that have air windows on both sides (usually at shows).
I'd like the same setup, but I have not been able to find any kits that would let me do this. I've thought about trying to find a wrecked truck and cannibalizing passenger door parts, but I'm not sure if they're reversible?
If anyone has done this modification, knows how to do it or where to find the necessary parts, I'd be grateful for any information you can offer.

I don't know about the changeover your talking about, but I think it would work just by looking at the air cylinder. A new air cylinder(regulator is what some call it) is $300 buck from peterbilt. Everyonce in a while you will see one on ebay, but they still sell for $200+++ used!!!
I know, my passenger side one is jacked, so I've been looking for awhile.

yeah peterbilt will rip you, they quoted me a new winsheild wiper witch for $295,
I told them to keep it. Took my old one apart and fixed it.
A couple weeks ago there was two air cylinders and both dash switches and all the air lines on one auction on ebay. everything was used of course. it went for $320 or something . -
