My solution for this is to use second gear start in low and then manually shift down to first if needed. Much smother

I have been running the prototype for 2 years and not 1 issue with it,and my 80 is my only vehicle so I drive it everyday,and some of my windows runner's are original and to honest I don't see a huge difference in speed

I would assume if voltage / current exceeds motor specs they'll (the motors) fail early. That said the duty cycle here probably low enough to not matter. I not learned enough to opine and if my windows bothered me enough I'd try it. Mine go...

Installed mine yesterday works as advertised, time will tell when winter shows up. It does work much better and my stuff was in pretty good condition to begin with. :flipoff2:

Just installed mine. What a sweet solution to a simple problem. 10 minute install, and the windows zip up and down as fast as my 2025 Tundra. Got me thinking about my old MkIII Supra now....gotta see if it uses the same relay. @PIP Might be...

I am grateful that I have 2 spare A343F transmissions so I don't have to rebuild 1

Working on it...I'm generally too busy tearing things apart and puttign them back together to memorialize my work, but I have fairly good notes and photos. Somewhere.

So I'm going to chime in for the ones who doubted this,I have been running the prototype for 2 years and not one problem,with the Window Rocket and my Land Cruiser is my only vehicle that I drive daily its such an improvement,I still have 2...

Ok, just finished my install…31 mins start to finish, with two battery post disconnects and kick plate removals (don’t forget to connect the ground wire after plugging in the plug!)….super easy install and night and day results! Let me figure...

One of the benefits of my slightly slower windows is not guillotining my poor dog. Lord.

My 80: 1996, 252k miles, new PS window rack & motor from Rock Auto ~4yrs ago, sunroof rack removal and rebuild ~5yrs ago, new Odyssey AGM27P (850CCA, 85AH) a month ago showing 13.7v at rest, engine OFF. I use the sunroof almost every time I drive...

who else is just waiting until the winter to see if all these speedy windows continue to work ? 😂

My 1990 Benz 300E and 1992 Subaru SVX have windows that haul butt. I'm not buying the 30 yr argument from anyone.

I would like to put in an order for a Window Rocket for a RHD 1991 HDJ81. Please let me know when it's available. The slow windows bother me and you have come up with a solid solution. Thank you sir.

I share that experience with seat gears stripping again and again. What seems to have worked for me is disassembling everything 100%, cleaning, greasing, assembling and verifying alignment of both sides. Then gears hold up well.

Safe to assume then that there will be a solution for RHD with no ABS when the dust settles on this?

OK, just placed an order :cool: She'll be going up on BAT soon and a good video with faster windows will probably help with bids :hmm:

My cassette deck works great. I blame my 80 for my ridiculous cassette tape collection. That said, I don't blame you for wanting faster windows.

It’s worth it. I’d changed the runs, greased and cleaned, siliconed the runs and nothing really improved. Especially slow in winter. I’d hoped a product like this would come out when, years ago, Icon mentioned how they upgraded the electrical to...

Thanks to a member sending me a link to this thread! The Window Rocket is my product. I'll start by answering a few questions- Austin didn't do anything sneaky in his video. He's a stand up dude and calls it like it is. I told him about the...

The power windows on our '97 Subaru I sold last year never had any issues with its 4 windows, they all worked OK in the winter. With my '97 80 series, every one of the windows worked like crap when I bought it 4 years ago. Face it, 80 series...

Looking at the website, it appears that it plugs into the POWER MAIN RELAY socket as it is shown mounted in the left kick panel. So everything downstream will be getting the boosted voltage (sunroof and widows). As you stated, it's not going to...

Pussy. :lol: :flipoff2:

"The Window Rocket replaces the power window relay. Using a 40 amp relay to pass the necessary current, then boosting the voltage several volts with a special module ensuring the window motors get the 14 volts they were designed to run on." It...

Thank you I believe the spring has went bad I'll look tomorrow at it
