Looking for some advice. I'm trying to install the door windows in my '40 Ford pickup.
I have the regulator installed in the door already.
However, should I install the window in the tracks of the regulator before I try to install it inside the door?
Right now, since there is no weight on the window tracks, the window won't stay down. The spring pushes the track up to the top. I had the window inside the door but the opening is so small I could barely get my hands inside to lift it up on the track.
If anyone has pictures, that would be ideal.
Thanks
