I have a 1998 Ford Explorer 5.0, eddie bauer (power windows)

Where can I get both the front and rear guides (the ones with felt lining?

The problem is my window is going down slowly because of either the guides or the motor scissor arms (one is bent).

The window goes up just fine, but when the window gets to the top, it is going outside the guide, leaving a 1/4" gap between the door and the window.

The only way to close it is to push the window in slightly as it is going up, which can only be done from the outside.

Where can I find new guides? I think the whole internal door system needs to be replaced (aside from the glass itself)
 






I just wanted to add is it looks I need to replace the Window Regulator? Is this the piece that contains the (2) runners with felt-like lining??

Assuming I purchase the motor and regulator, how difficult is this to install?
