Another "what window part broke" thread
After doing some research I still can't really figure it out and the last owner put dynomat in but didn't cut out the window holes, otherwise I'd just look in the door. Car is a 98 firebird formula. I left the windows down when I was parking, got out, and closed the door behind me. When I closed it, I heard a little clunk sort of sound. Now whenever I roll up the driver's side window I have to roll it up a little, make sure the window is back all the way in the slider, then as it rolls up I have to support it from falling too far in towards me. Anyone have any idea which part of the window assembly this is/might be and where I can find it?? Thanks

my last TA had the same problem, I think it was the window regulator technically but it always looked like a PITA to fix so I never bothered. My current TA doesn't have that problem yet at least. Thank god.

Yea man i have a 99 firebird and it did the exact thing.The window would go down but it would go up about 1in at a time! I could also move it when I got it a lil ways up. The window stablizer was broken along with the motor. So, I replaced the motor and the regulator i had to jeery rig the window stablizer. It took me about 3 hrs to do
because I didnt have rivit
tools. I think that would be your best bet.
