Figure I'd post this here too. Probably the same setup on the 4 Door Explorers.
If no one knows has the answer to this, I guess I'll have to take apart the other rear door to figure it out.
The PO of my ST torn apart (literally) the driver side rear door's window mechanism, left it in pieces and threw away the hardware. I'm in the process of removing the regulator, which I'll probably need to replace, due to the damage he did to it. The motor is fine by the way. I've been studying how the window is supposed to work and think I have it figured out.
My question is regarding the center track and how it works with the glass mount piece. Upon examination, it appears to me that the glass mount has to slide up/down vertically on the center track. Is there supposed to be some sort of nylon piece that goes on the glass mount? It looks like it would slide on the sides of the center track. I can probably straighten out the damaged glass mounting piece with vise-grips. If so, does anyone know it this nylon piece is replaceable? It looks like where it would go is bend down on one side, where the PO tried to lever out the center track. What a freaking mess he made!
I can post a link to some pics if that helps.
TIP #1 : If you have to bent and break stuff to remove it, you're doing it wrong!
TIP #2 : If you're going to take something apart, leave the hardware in the vehicle so you don't loss it!
