Thats what i did to the driver side, works good but dont weld it back until you fit the window in and it working and lining up propely. Welded mine too early and it off a bit now the truck is painted i have to live with it. On the pass side i didn't drill the spot weld instead i cut the track off that bracket from the inside with a die grinder and a small cutting wheel then used whats left of the bracket to line up the track work really good and kept the window in line .
