Default Need help adjusting windows

My windows (power) don't close properly, they jam on the outside of the window guide. I've replaced the window guides in the door but this did not correct the poblem. Anyone have literature on how to adjust them.

Thanks in advance,
The Iceman

sounds like your door glass is going to high. Inside the door there 2 tracks one in the front of the door and one in the back that run vertically at the top are two bolts with U shaped stops lower those hope this will work

My 72 GM Service Manual has a window adjustment procedure. Do you have the proper service manual? Chilton's and Haynes are ok for day to day stuff, but to due to it the way GM does it you really need the GM manual. Go to www.ncrs.org, click on the store icon and order away.
