Window Track Alignment

[Bullnose Gator]

The passenger window gets stuck about halfway up. It appears the regulator arm is off and the window isn't going up the track the way it should, but I don't see any examples of how it should look anywhere so I thought I'd ask here before taking the driver side panel off to compare.

I can't tell you much.  On mine the pass window is great.  Less used over the years.   Drivers side will go a round or two, then stick.  I release pressure and keep winding.  It goes up eventually.   Can you adjust the position of the window by hand to release whatever is stopping it?

I haven’t looked, but we have the shop manual section on this at Documentation/Body/WINDOW GLASS & MECHANISMS - GENERAL SERVICE.

Thanks. I had trouble following the shop manual for my specific problem, but I took the driver's side off so see how it was supposed to work. Turns out my track and regulator arm were somehow way out of whack. Unfortunately, I replaced the motor before figuring that out, thinking the gears were shot. Oh well, at least I shouldn't have to worry about the motor going out for a while lol.
