My 69 Rear Quarters are sticking!!!

Both my rear quarter windows are sticking. I have to move them back and forth when I want to roll them up and down. (down is a little easier) I pulled the back seat out and took off the interior panels to get to them and they (roll up mechanisms) look like they are hard to get to, at least to work on. There is no grease on the rails either. will try to grease them, and go from there. Anybody out there have problems with these rear windows?

hoping that I don't have to replace those things!!!!!

I just got done (well, is one of these really done?) with a resto of my 69. I had it completely apart, including taking the mechanisms out of the back, and let me tell ya, I came this >< close to slinging them out to the weeds.

The mechanisms don't rely so much on grease as they do on the nylon rollers that glide on the tracks. Chances are that yours are either wobbling, or have come off track. You should be able to get them back on track without taking the whole thing out.

You can remove the plastic vent in the door jamb and get a better look at them there.

Good luck!
