Fixing jammed up windows
Hey all,
Both the windows in my '72 Custom20 are jammed up (two person job- lifting while cranking). This is the age of Youtube University where there are how-to videos for about everything. Figured, given how beloved these trucks are, that there'd be a handful of videos on how to free up those bound up old regulators. Based on my youtube searches though, turns out that's not true (found 2, not very good). Verbal descriptions about how to disassemble the doors and innards are OK, but video imagery is so much more helpful in general, but especially for people like me who are sorta new to the pieces and parts lingo. That said, anyone have any links to videos on this or other sites that break down the start-to-finish, step-by-steps of the stuck window regulator problem? If not, I'll just dig in using some of the tips I've read about here.
As a side note, I know this site has how-to discussion forums, but it might be kind of a cool thing eventually for there to be a how-to video forum where people can dump the DIY videos they find (or make) related to the various maintenance issues of these trucks. These videos could also be separated into year-range categories and subject-area subcategories like on the discussion forums. Anyway, just a thought.
