The crank is held on by a U clip that clips on the crank. It's best to get the tool for removing the clip. Cheap from any auto parts store. You have to slide the tool between the door panel and the crank. You'll also need to figure out which direction to push, so ask the guys at the store to show you a crank and the clip so you know what you're trying to push off. Should take about 10 seconds.

window crank clip
This may help you with the window crank clip. I tried this and it worked the 1st time!!!! BUT I had new clips,handles and door panels going back on!!! As usual,a friend had MY clip removal tool.
Try sliding a rag behind the handle and pulling it like a you're starting a lawn mower. Sounds GROSS but it works!!!! LOL

This is the NCRS web site and their store, specifically the 68-82 library. You can shop until you drop or are broke. You don't need to be a member and, if you call them (might be a bit expensive for you from Sweden) they are very helpful. I can't imagine ANYONE not owning the original GM Service Manual as well as the Assembly Instruction Manual, the AIM.

What am I missing here? In addition, for the $129 that you mentioned at a vendor he can buy the Service Manual (also called Chassis Service Manual), the AIM, and a couple of other books to boot. Gary

was out and adjusted the windows today didnt get that window crank of but managed to turn the door panel so i got to it.
The passenger side went great now it lines up perfectly
But the drivers side was more difficult.the window needs to go more inwards in the front bottom of the window.
some here that have done this??
