Is your winder mechanism for smokers windows? I'm not sure but your channels may have to match that type. I didn't set my windows in the channels till it was assembled and I could check final position. For the life of me I can't remember exactly how it goes, I just remember it being a PITA sliding the window down then trying to make it sit in the roller etc. I'm sure someone has asked about this before if you do a search you my find it.

Joe, Here's a drawing of the passenger side door glass along with the lower window channel. See if your components are oriented like the image shows.
