D1 passenger front window issue

[mrbieler]

Trying to figure out what could be the issue with my passenger side front window.

Goes down fast and smooth. No hesitation, etc.

Goes up smoothly until halfway and then it bogs down and sometimes even stop. With some encouragement pulling on the glass, it will clear the halfway point, speed back up, and finish closing.

Cleaned the tracks, connections, etc. No change. Just seems odd that it's only the half way point when closing that it has an issue.

After typing the above I went back out to the truck and pulled the door panel again. Loosed the bolts holding the window to the lift track and it traveled fine up and down. Lowered and raised the window with the glass just riding the actuator and I noticed a slight shift front to back. Reattached the glass to the actuator and loosed the bolts holding the actuator to the door. Played with for just over an hour adjusting things within the variances the mounting holes allowed and final found a spot where it raised and lowered smoothly. PITA, but the window is back in business. Until next time when it's not.

Typically LR fit issues... LOL.

I had the same thing happen to me. The plastic rollers were broken. I bought a metal roller repair kit for it and that solved my problem. It was on eBay for $15 I’ll post a link.

Rollers were fine. This was strictly an alignment issue. There’s enough play in the mount holes for the motor/mechanism to cause a headache.
