I went to put my windows down earlier today and all of sudden the driver side sounded like burst from an AK and hardly going down and then when it reached a point it would go down all the way smooth. It goes up perfectly fine though. Has anyone expierenced this? im going to pull the door off when i have a chance and see whats going on?

Ya I replaced the factory one with a new one from AutoZone a while back when my passenger side started going out. And ya its held on with nuts and bolts.

Ahhh - Sorry. I thought you said there were NOT holes drilled in the skin. (I misread your comment.)
Just replace the bolts one-by-one with thread locker. Or better than that - you might use nylock nuts. (I'm not a thread locker fan due to the mess.)
You'll also want to use a mirror and make sure the regulator gear rack isn't too chewed up. (Otherwise, you'll need a new reg = not fun to replace.)
