Default 99 2 door window not lining up ????

really confused right now and wishing i had taken pics when i pulled it apart. im putting in the new regulator on my jeep and the holes just wont line up for the window! i dont think i have it upside down and this is the 2nd regulator that wont line up! the first one didnt either but it had a cracked line so i returned it. now this one doesnt either! maybe someone can spot something?

if not, i just might have to take it to the stealership cause im so fed up with this thing







thanks!

oh yeah, i was tempted to drill a new hole but then worried it wont line up right on the track.

Stick a piece of wood under the glass to hold it up and get a regulator from the dealer. Sometimes the dealer is the best for parts like window regulators and other body parts, knock offs from China can be junk as you may know.

sad part is this one is from the dealer

and i had my dad hold it up while we tried lining it up and even he was confused as to what to do. we got it close but then the window would be dragging hardcore and would burn stuff up in no time. only option we saw would be to drill a new hole but thats if worst comes to worst.
