    Convertible Rear/Quarter Windows
    « on: July 30, 2007 - 11:18:27 PM »
    Does anyone know if the rear quarter windows (and hardware) were the same for both the hard-top and convertible?  This would be for a 1970 Challenger, but I assume the same would apply for a 'Cuda.  The reason I'm asking is that mine don't seem to go down all the way.  A little bit of the top still sticks above the window channel with it rolled all the way down.  Thanx

    That is a common problem in e-bodies. Every one I have ever had or been around had that malady actually. I want to see a power window e-body because as finicky as the manual regulators are I would like to see if they work smoothly with power windows.

    Are they're adjuastable stops on the quarter glass?  You may try moving them to allow the window to go all the way down/up.  The door glass is like this... :dunno:

    I may have one . . well 50/50 chance.  I have one but will have to look to see what side it is.   :dunno:  You are talking about the rear side window . . right?

    I have power windows and they are all fine except drive door motor is slightly out of alignment with the regulator. I need to pull it apart and then move motor gear 2 teeth to fix alignment. But the windows all operate smooth as a babies A$$.
