3 ADJUSTMENTS

FRONT DOOR WINDOW MECHANISM

Separate adjustment steps are given for each adjustment so that a partial glass adjustment can be performed.

If a complete glass adjustment is required, follow the adjustments in the order given. All window mechanism adjustments must be performed with the door trim panel and water shield removed. After the adjustment(s) are completed, install the water shield and trim panel.

Glass Position-Fore and Aft
It is necessary to reposition the glass in the opening if the glass has been removed or if extreme door hinge adjustments are performed. To reposition the glass, remove the trim panel and water shield.

Then, loosen the three glass bracket-to-glass retaining nuts (Items A, Fig. I), and position the glass forward or rearward as necessary to obtain the best fit around the edge of the glass with the weatherstrip. After the glass is moved to the desired position, tighten the three glass bracket-to-glass retaining nuts to specification (Section9).

Stabilizer Adjustment
The stabilizers are used to support the glass at the belt line. The trim panel must be removed to adjust the stabilizers. Then, with the glass in the up position, push the front stabilizer firmly against the glass surface and tighten the attaching screw (Item B,Fig. 1).

Repeat the procedurefor the rear stabilizer.

Glass In-Out Tilt
The in-out tilt adjustment is used to obtain a good seal with the weather- strip at the top edge of the glass. This adjustment is made by repositioning the upper and lower guides with respect to the glass bracket. 

To adjust the in-out 

Tilt of the glass, loosen the two lower attaching screws (items C, figure 1)

And move the top of the glass, inward or outward as required to obtain a good seal with the weatherstrip. Then, tighten the upper guide attaching screws to specification. (section 9)

Then, tighten the lower guide, detaching screws.

On the right door, tighten the lower guide rear screw, and then tighten the front screw.

After the guide attaching screws have been tightened, again check the glass weatherstrip fit for a good seal. Readjust the in and out tilt of the glass if a good air tight seal is not achieved.

Upper stop adjustment

The upper stop adjustment are used to limit the up travel of the glass to maintain constant glass height when the glass is raised to the full close position.

The door trim panel must be removed to adjust the up stops.

To adjust the stops, raise the window To the up position.

Check to be sure there is no interference when the door is opened.

Then, position the brackets down against the glass stops, and tighten the stop bracket attaching screw (items D, figure 1).

Use this procedure for both the front and rear upper stops.

Lower stop adjustment

The lower stop is used to control the depth the glass can be lowered into the door.

To adjust the lower stop, remove the door trim panel. Loosen the lower stop retaining screw. (Item E, Fig 1)

And lower the glass until the top edge is 1-1/4 inches above the outer panel. Then, list the stop against the glass, bracket and tighten the retaining screw.
