Default C3 Power window

Hey guys, the window on the co-pilot side my 70 T-Top jerks(for lack of a better term) when being raised. I installed a new regulator, check ed the gears at the motor and motor operation and all seems in order. Any ideas on what causes this problem.

yea actually it could be the spring in the mechanism. there's a strong spring in the scissor system that helps the window go up. if its broken the window will go down fast and go up slow
