Door Glass Adjustment
« on: May 14, 2009 - 02:25:26 PM »
I saw a post at one point that had a diagram of the glass adjusting points.  I've searched, but either can't find the right thread, or the pics are gone.  Can anyone guide me to the thread or re-post the pics?  I'm working on a 71 Cuda if you have multiple diagrams.

You can see all of them at the source;

I'm so cool I'm cold.   :roflsmiley:

Note that those are for 1970 models, I believe that '71 models differ some?

This is a picture of how my glass meets in the middle (sorry it's so dark). The door and 1/4 glass are only as close as barely touching. The door glass seems to need to move back about 3/8 to 1/2" to fit right with the 1/4 glass. The fore/aft adjustment as noted on the diagram doesn't seem to have much variability but I'll look again. Is that what I'll have to use to get them together? I don't see much fore/aft adjustment on the 1/4 glass.

I've also been thinking I should get the weather stripping around the top of the opening before full adjustment so I can see where everything is supposed to fit.  Thoughts?

Thanks again.

your door gap may be a little wide  :dunno: could be the angle  :clueless:
my gap is a little tight and my door glass is a little week in the front for a good tight seal  :2cents:
