Default window adjustments/etc

curious if there is a set of instruction somewhere that gives a good breakdown and redoing the windows/adjusting. I need to clean my tracks/etc and get the alignment with the weatherstripping correct

The AIM has a very good procedure for window adjustment. Get the T-top correct front and rear B4 you even start on the window.

Study the printed material and the operation of the unit. There are 5 dimension to a side glass: Up and Down, Front to Back, Left to Right, In or Out and Time.

Once you understand the dynamics it becomes fun in getting the best results. Just as a note, to always bring you back to what you have before you start is you can 'mark' the positions of the existing hardware prior to adjustment.

Good luck to you.
