78 power window question
The window motors function properly but both sides stop about 3/4” from going all the way up.
Anyone else have this issue or ideas on how to correct it? Thanks

Seems strange both sides would be doing this. Someone have these doors apart recently?
Adjusting the top stops is pretty basic.

My experience
Similar issue on my 78. Pulled out windows and tracks. Tracks were very gunked up with grease and dirt. Also driver side front roller totally shot. Cleaned greased and replaced roller. Now works fine. AIM mentions having 2 people when adjusting glass after installation. The inside guy has a better view of the alignment so that the outside guy holds the glass in position with suction cups while the inside guy tightens screws/bolts.
