ABSTRACT:
An all glass slide-over rear door for vehicle and camper shells is provided. The all glass door is pivotally attached to the roof of the vehicle with two hinges that are slidably accommodated in a pair of parallel tracks mounted to the roof of the shell or vehicle. Two gas props connect an inside surface of the door to the opposing sides of the rear opening. The gas props are pivotally connected to the inside surface of the door and each prop is further connected to a bracket mounted on one of the opposing sides of the rear opening by way of an offset link. The offset link provides lateral clearance between the prop and the side of the rear opening and further lowers the overall height of the rear door when the rear door is in the fully open position.
