Default Window alignment help

Got new outside door felts/weatherstrips but now I can’t get the right alignment screw pushed up. Now the window is overlapping the B-pillar, any way to adjust this? This is an 89

I just adjusted my side windows after weather strip replacement. If I'm not mistaken that bolt and the one adjacent to it only adjust the in and out adjustment of the window. For height and tilt. or front to back adjustments you use other bolts inside the door. See your factory service manual or search the forum for more detailed information. My windows only needed slight inward adjustment so I didn't have to get into the height or tilt adjustments - thankfully.

2 bolts are on the inside of the door attached to the regulator at the back of the window and one more towards the front of the window in the door panel before the front adjustment bolt close to the mirror. Youll have to raise or lower the window to have access to them. but they allow the window to slide back and forth. Micro adjustments a lot goes far. Had to do it after weather-strip replacement and it was a tedious to get it adjusted right.
