There are several online posts about how to take windows out of first gen camaros and how to put them back together--much better than the Fisher Body instructions.
So now I've got the front windows and vent windows out, but not sure exactly where to go from here. The seals on the vent windows are shot, so I know I have to take that apart and have new seals enroute.
As for the regulator, rollers, tracks on the front window:
The rear main roller that goes up and down the vertical track is just a stub. I've ordered a replacement from Ground Up that claims to be a Camaro roller part number (WR-068). Has anybody used the part; how do I attach it?
I've cleaned the gunk out of the tracks. I've cleaned the gunk out of the regulator teeth. All in all it was pretty clean and rolled up an down fairly well before disseambly. The rollers on the regulator are intact, but don't really roll well. I put a bunch of white lithium grease on the tracks and the rollers yesterday hoping the rollers would loosen up.
Should I put the grease on the teeth also and wind it back and forth to lube the mechanism?
How much grease should be in the tracks when I reinstall them? Thin film or well lubricated?
How much cleaning should I do of the regulator teeth themselves. The regulator itself looks like it has a galvanized finish. Avoid chemicals and wire brushes?
At what point do I consider the regulator replaceable?
thanks
