Have you gotten it to go up straight yet?

Have you gotten it to go up straight yet?

Note: Only having the problem with the two front window-glasses.

Not fixed yet. Door-panels off. Lubricated all. Thoughts?

One thing I would do is find the measurements for window glass on another 4 door, just for giggles. You never know what someone else has done. I can give that to you because I have a 2 door. In order for it to be in there diagonally, there has to be lots of play in the window channels. But it doesn't seem right that both would be worn. Usually it is the driver side that would show that.

All input received and appreciated. Most suggestions executed.

Observation is that one of the window-run weather-strippings is too tight.

All the weather-stripping is original except one; The one that divides the vent-glass which is after-market.

Therefore, I purchased OEM/NOS replacements.

Now I need to remove the glass to replace the weather-strippings. I have studied the how-to-do, but have not figured-out how to-do.

Help?

First you roll the window down. Remove the door panel. There is a screw in the top of the frame that attaches to the door window frame, and one at the bottom. Remove them and rotate the the wind wing back. Then you can remove it

:smiley-gen165:.....:bacondance::bacondance::bacondance:.. ...:thumbsup:.....It worked... Thank you!.....:thanx:.....What I did not feel comfortable doing was tugging on the vent-glass frame. With your specific suggestion... I tugged and out it came! PS: Apparently the after-market was a bad fit... As the OEM/NOS has a larger opening for the glass to slide. :woot:
