Doing a restoration and when I install this new Cool Cruisers window regulator (Drivers Side) it seems the window track is not long enough. Passenger side worked fine. I thought possibly it is because of the after market window regulator from Cool Cruisers but there are not OEM available. Strange problem anyone else ever have it?
When I install it and roll all the way to the top it falls out of the window channel. Also if I roll all the way to the bottom it falls out of the window channel. It acks like the window track is not long enough to go full travel. I have not done that many early models so haven't run into this before. An ideas?

Thanks..
 
Wadesters- Yes! I'm having a similar problem with my new SOR pass side reg. The rearmost nylon(plastic) wheel comes out of its channel just enuf to hang up when rolling down. If the damn channel was an inch longer, this wouldn't be an issue I guess. Am getting in w/ SOR now.

I have the same issue on my 72 FJ40, really appreciated it if you could let me know how you solved this problem.
