Remove upper and lower portion of door trim assembly and inner panel water deflector. 2, Remove front and rear window up-travel stops ("I" and "2", Fig. 5-115) and guide pin stabil- ier ("10", Fig. 5-115), 3. Loosen front and rear belt trim support retainers 3", Fig. 5- 115). 4, With window in three-quarter-down position, remove lower sash channel cam to glass attach~ ing nuts ("4”, Fig. 5-115). Remove window by lifting straight up and aligning rollers with not- ches provided in the door inner panel. Remove rear end of window first, then front end. 5. To install, reverse removal procedure. Adjust window for proper alignment and operation as described previously. Torque all previously removed attaching nuts to 72 inch-pounds and all attaching screws to 60 to 90 inch-pounds. Make sure that when the glass is cycled, it does not come in contact with the blow-out clip. DOOR WINDOW ASSEMBLY - “F” Styles The door window assembly consists of a solid tem- pered safety plate glass window and an individually bolted-on roller at the rear and a roller assembly (bellerank) at the front, The lower sash channel cam is bolted to the glass, but is removed in the process of removing the window Figure 5-116 is an exploded view of the window assembly and identifies the various components and their assembly sequence. NOTE: When installing glass attachments, torque at- taching nuts to 72 inch-pounds (6 foot-pounds). ‘Also, when replacing door glass, replace door glass washers and spacers ("3” and "8", Fig. 5-116). When the glass is cycled, it must not come in contact with the blow-out clip. Diagnosis and Adjustment 1. WINDOW NOT PARALLEL WITH SIDE ROOF RAIL WEATHERSTRIP - A rotated ‘window condition (glass cocked in opening) can bbe corrected by loosening front and rear up- travel stops ("1” and "2°, Fig, 5-117) and inner panel cam screws ("8", Fig. 5-117) and raising or lowering front edge of glass in relation to rear ‘edge of glass as required. Then tighten inner Fig. 5-116-Door Window Assembly Window Assembly Washer (Plastic) Bolt Inner Panel Cam Nut Glass Bearing Fastener 2 Glass Bearing Fastener Cap Spacers Roller Assembly (Bell Crank) Washer (Metal Fig. 5-117-Window Removal and Adjustment 1 2 Front Up-Teavel Stop Screw Rear Up-Travel Stop Screw Bolt Trim Support Retainers Lower Sash Channel Com Access Holes ear Guide Upper Bracket Screws 6 2 8 Front Guide Upper Screws Rear Guide to Guide Upper Bracket Screws Inner Panel Cam Screws Window Down Travel Bumper Support Panel cam attaching serews and raise glass to desired height to establish proper contact with side roof rail weatherstrip.

Outboard adjustment of the guide moves the upper edge of the glass in- board. Conversely, inboard adjustment moves the upper edge of the glass outboard. With glass in a full-up position, position trim support re_ tainers against inner surface of glass and tighten attaching screws. Torque all previously loosened hardware attachment components to 60 t0 90 inch-pounds. Make sure that when glass is cy led, it does not come in contact with the blow. out clip. WINDOW TOO HIGH OR LOW IN UP PO. SITION - Loosen front and rear up-travel stops C1" and °2*, Fig. 5-117) and operate window to desired position to establish proper glass to side oof rail weatherstrip contact. Position up-tray Stops to contact stops on glass and torque up: travel stop screws to 60 to 90 inch-pounds. WINDOW TOO HIGH OR LOW IN DOWN POSITION - Loosen down-travel bumper sup- port ("9", Fig. $-117) and lower or raise window. to desired full-down glass height. Then position bumper support against lower edge of glass and torque attaching screw to 60 to 90 inch-pounds. WINDOW TOO FAR FORWARD OR REARWARD - Loosen upper end of rear guide 7", Fig. 5-117) and reposition glass as neces. sary. Because the roller assembly. (bellcrank) which attaches to the glass at the front pivots, the front guide does not have to be adjusted during fore and aft window alignment. Torque Buide attachments to 60 to 90 inch-pounds. WINDOW MECHANISM BINDS WHEN OPERATING - Ease of window operation and. window stability depends a great extent on the adjustment of the window belt trim support {ainers at the beltline ("3", Fig. 5-117). The sup. Port retainers should "contact the — glass throughout the full cycle of the window. How. ever, in some cases due to the slight variations in glass contour, the strip may lose contact with the glass halfway through the cycle. This is per- missible provided it does not result in loose glass oF restrict ease of window operation. After the belt trim support retainers have been adjusted, Doors 5.83 torque the attaching screws to 60 to 90 inch- pounds, Glass Alignment Using Gauge Blocks - "F” Styles To consistently align door glass within specifications and to facilitate adjustment of this glass, use glass alignment gauge block tool J-23394 or equivalent (Fig. 5-118). For proper use of gauge blocks. refer to the following procedure. Remove door trim assembly and inner panel wa- ter deflector as described in "Door Trim” and Front and Rear Doors” portion of this section, Detach side roof rail weatherstrip at lower front and rear corners and carefully remove from re- tainer. With glass in a partially down position, install gauge blocks, tool J-23394-2 (blue) or equiva- Tent, into side roof rail weatherstrip retainer above upper front and rear corners of the glass as shown in Figure 5-119. Then, install glass suction cups on interior surface of glass (Fig, 5-119) to enable adjuster to shift glass when making adjustments with door in a closed posi- tion, NOTE: When installing gauge blocks (blue) or equivalent into upper retainer on “F” styles, handle portion of blocks must protrude out. board (Fig. 5-119), Also, grooves on sides of blocks must be fully engaged with side roof rail Weatherstrip retainer Working from inside body, with door in a closed Position, loosen front and rear up-travel stops ("1 and "2", Fig. 5-117) and belt trim support retainers ("3", Fig, 5-117), Fig. S18-Glass Alignment Gauge Blocks - Too!
