Passager side window won't roll down
I can only get it to roll down about an inch. Using some serious force. I oiled it up one time and it was buttery smoth now it just locks up I can push past It at first then it hit that spot and won't buge. Even With me pushing top of the window down It rolls up really easy thoue.

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
Could be the roller has popped out of the track. Pushing will only make it worse. You need to remove door panel to find out.

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
roller wheel could be broken and jammed or the spring could have popped out of the housing

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
Well I looked up what the regulater looked like in the door and the rollers are in place I beleve. I can reach in thare and feel around and nothing seems out of place. If the rollers where poped out wouldn't it be hard to roll up to. Ps now it won't role down at all

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
the roller could break and the piece still attatched to the arm could get lodged in the track

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
I think the rollers are not broke. I flet around and they seem fine. Kida hard to tell. If it is a broken rolder then how could I get my window down. I think the spring is also broken with the window up all the way I can still get a 1\4 turn on the handle

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
Or... I've seen this happen when the felt in the channel gets torn. It bunches up under the glass and won't let it go down. Check your felt and see how it looks and feels.

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
Good call on the felt. It was all tore up so I tore most of it out. It sadly did not help

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
When the felt lining is torn, deteriorated, or otherwise gone, the metal guide bar attached to the glass and runs in the channel will dig in and cause the window to "lock up".. If a chunk of the rubber that the felt is attached to is missing, the guide bar will grab and cause the "lock up"..
Forcing the issue will (if it hasn't already happened) damage the regulator mechanism.. Sounds to me like it's time for you to overhaul the entire window raising/lowering mechanism.. |

If you have to overhaul the door, once done you'll see how easy. Maybe you'll find the problem and all else is good, though you'll at least need new sweeps. If by some luck your regulator is good, then remove the oil and be generous with white lithium grease. Randy500 has a nice straight-forward write up on how to do it.

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
Thanks for all the help I removed the 3 screws and got the window done a little bit but is still hangs up. Should I remove the other screws to losen the other track?

You can try it but I'm not sure it will do any good to remove the wing window channel screws, it still won't move much. LockDoc

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
Did you remove all of the torn felt? That's where I would start - you're going to need to replace it anyway.

Re: Passager side window won't roll down

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
what a coincidence, I just finished unfreezing the passenger side window on my new longhorn today..
the driver's side was tight but loosened up easily with some pb blaster and lubed with pb spray lithium grease.. the cam followers in the regulator tracks take some repeated movement but loosened up once soaked good.. the passenger's side rubber wiper lip lower down in the glass run was stiff and binding the metal glass track.. old farm truck probably didn't have passengers in it often so it was likely not used a lot over the years.. since it will later be replaced, I simply took a short putty knife and scraped the rubber lip away so the track would slide down the channel.. copious amounts of lube allows it slide easily for now ![]() good luck!

Re: Passager side window won't roll down
Haha I had it freed up not to long ago. It was buttery smoth then it just locked up. All well the driver side still works good and the wing window on the passager side works

When you had it freed up it was shifted to the side but has now worked its way back over to where it causes the binding up problem.
