RE: IML: 67 Driver Door Window

["Ken Lang" <ken@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to everyone for the great input.  Upon my initial inspection I did
remove the entire door panel to make it easier to access the mechanical
workings.  But was unable to see anything obvious.  Time didn't permit me to
dig deeper into the problem so I put the door panels back and proceeded off
to my local car show.  Fortunately I have a great working AC system and
don't really need the window to roll down. I will be removing the motor this
weekend and will probably find the exact scenario described by everyone
here.

Ken,

Mine behaved similarly.  It was the window motor.  The plastic bushings were
completely shot.  I did replace them with the nylon bushing trick, but the
motor itself was tired.  The window would go down well, but didn?t have the
umph to go back up.  I got replacement motors and installed them (well, at
lest the front, the rear is still waiting).

Ok, I thought I was pretty smart. (my wife knows better)  The driver window
on my 67 4 Dr Ht stopped working.  I can still hear the motor running but
there is no movement in the window.  However I can push the window down
manually and pull it up with no problem.  So I figured a clip of some sort
has broken or fallen off.  I have felt around inside the door and been able
to find nothing.  The FSM doesn?t really have any good pictures to show the
mechanics.  I even tried sticking my fat head in the door opening but that
didn?t work either.  I really don?t want to rip the door completely apart
just to find a missing clip was all I needed.  Anyone have a similar
experience they can relate?

Thx
Ken
