    M1009 How To Roll Down the Rear Window??

    I will go a head and bend that sash back, without the rubber piece. I’ll do it without the glass in as well. The rollers are perfect, I replaced the regulator so that helps. I’ll lube it all up again once I get it it all back together. The seals I’m referring to are the square shaped ones...

    M1009 How To Roll Down the Rear Window??

    Hello CUCVRUS! I ordered and installed side channels for the tailgate window and channel caps. It now rolls up and down very nicely. The channel that the glass sits in is still bent on one side. It doesn’t seem to be affecting it. I do have a new channel and rubber strip for that window. I...

    M1009 How To Roll Down the Rear Window??

    The window wasn’t rolling up properly after I put things back together. So I started checking the tracks, etc. In the process I saw this pice sitting at the bottom on the tailgate. I also noticed something else, the spring in hanging down in one end. Any idea where the piece goes and where to...

    M1009 How To Roll Down the Rear Window??

    Scratch that! I figured it out. I had to put the metal pole end into the plastic hole first, then snap the plastic o to the pole. I was doing it backwards!! I should still replace or fix that rubber wheel right? Thank you again CUCVRUS!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    M1009 How To Roll Down the Rear Window??

    I have to admit I’m lost and it’s not working. I’ve tried different things, but I just don’t get it. I placed the rod into the plastic, turning it different ways. Still it doesn’t stay in the plastic and the tailgate isn’t working (opening). I’m not Mr. Mechanic, sorry for that. I literally...

    M1009 How To Roll Down the Rear Window??

    Update: I finally got to the tailgate today. I believe I figured out why the window was sagging on the passengers side. The Window Sash is bent downwards on that side. See pic below. Should I purchase a new one via LMC? I’ve read that’s it’s difficult to attach a new sash to the Glass Setting...
