new window rubber and window is tough to move
Help!
I just installed a gmcpauls kit this weekend. It's a great kit....and I highly recommend it if you are going to redo your seals. But..my when rolling my windows up and down, it is extremely tough. I have adjusted the front and the rear window track to what I believe is the proper position. Am I right to assume that it will get easier the more I use the window....or is there a trick I can do to make it operate more smoothly?

thats common with just about all the kits it should loosen after awhile especially if ti sits in the sun some.

Loosen the bolts that hold the bottom of the vent window, roll up and down a few times then retighten.

Re: new window rubber and window is tough to move
I actually tried that because I had my wing window assembly out to redo it. I also tried moving a combination of the wing window and rear channel. It made it a little easier. But after doing some reading on other forums, it seems like everybody says to give it some time...
