Default 71 coupe drivers side window.

Hi Guys,

I am having a problem with my drivers side window. It was extremely loose and "flapped" from side to side easily. I since purchased a window track lift arm rebuild kit along a set of new anti rattle bumpers. This seemend to work a treat and the window sat well against weather strip. I went for a drive yesterday and everything was fine however when i hit 60 mph + the front lip of the window "lifted" this brought the whole window out of line this issuse is much worse at the rear pillar where ther is a good inch gap between window and weatherstripping needless to say it is like sitting in a wind tunnel. Again at low speed the window seems fine? Any help/ Suggestions appreciated

Only drive in weather where you have the tops off and window down...no problem!

On a serious note though, I have the same issue as you, however have not done anything to fix the problem as of yet. Be interested to hear what everyone has to say.
