Ok so I've found and read past threads about this. And they all say 6 rivet. I can only find 2 and can't see a " plate " thingy that supposed to be attached ( I think ) to the regulator.
So does mine only have 2rivets cause it's a 89? And is there a way to open the door iners up? I've got the panel off ( without breaking it's clips --first time for that ) and really don't have much room to work with. Witch brings me to my next question


Should I just cut a extra hole in the door to work this?

BTW took it up Tin Cup pass today all to see if it would break some thing. The trail isn't hard by any means, but plenty of rock bouncen' around. Jeep did fine till the window wouldn't roll up, guess I should count my blessen'

 

Maybe this will help?



Edited to add: If you only have 2 rivets it could be a) the other items had already been replaced and nuts/bolts were used in place or b) its falling apart and parts are missing. Option b) just may make it easier to do the job (removal anyway). HTH!

Also added: the "plate" is only used if it is a power window; to hold the motor assembly in place.

 

Thank you that does help. I thought it was only the sealed gears part that needed to be replaced. Dang the hole thing Grrrr
Never had any luck tearing doors a part. This will be a challenge to my patients I'm sure
Thanks tho I did need to see that

 

Honestly, it isn't very difficult. I recently had to replace mine. I bought a door assembly with the intentions of replacing the door, just to be done w/ it. When I set up to work, I ended up dropping the door panels, removing the nuts/bolts and just had to fish the regulators through (bit of a pain). I'll admit, I busted my knockles up pretty good. But, I did this in just over a half hour.

 

Is there a trick to get the window up till I find the part and fix it?

 

If there is any window at all sticking up out of the door frame, just pull it up and tape it in place, for now. Otherwise, you'll have to pull the panel and then push the window up... and then tape it in place.

 

I can't get to window to budge? There's abot a 1 1/2 showing, but it wont move. Just pulled a trash bag over the door and secured its bottom with magnets. Hopefully go to the low-lands and find a junkyard this week.
Was thinking bout getting a whole set of doors to do the removable half doors. That way I can rob a regulator out of one of them. Any one know what kind of ( rough number ) price I'll be looking at " per " door?

 

Well gally gezz, I when back out to it to give it another try. I grabbed to bottom of the glass and gave it a wiggle. It moved up about a 1/2 inch and stopped. So out of curiosity I tried the hand crank ( needle nose vice grips ) and turned it.it worked so the next question. Is this just a matter of tightening some piece in there?
Was thinking maybe chop up a wood piece to keep window from going to far down? But thin again it's stops UN-rolling about 1 1/2 above door frame?

 

No trick its gotta be replaced..put stick under window with it all way up buying a new regulators best bet used ya never no how long its gonna last and ya gotta pull a second one at the junk yard. One thing rears and fronts use same regulator so rear doors have less wear and tear.
