iwsh i woulda saved the doors from the original JR. i hate power windows. i can;t imagine they are diff.hell my 86 keys work in a 79 trans-am?ryoken said:ok, not much came up on searches...
sick of the power windows in the 87.. have a set of manual 77 doors.. can i just swap the regulators over to go manual? same window and track? or is 80 a break point for that stuff?
thanks guys...
I'm guessing early-mid 80's.
hey maybe thats why i have to pull the drivers side window by hand.hack500 said:don't know if it makes any difference but somewhere in there GM switched from a thick window to a thinner window.
its outta the track.POS oh well, no doors next year.
till it gets cold anyway.
i swapped from pwr. to manual and it only took about 11/2 hors for one side(most of which was spent dealing with kid issues)the manual set-up came from an '87 k5 to an '84 truck w/89 sub.doors.i pulled everything from the '87(glass,locks, regs)and also the track because the '89 burb glass was 1/8in. thick compared to the older 1/4in.thick and the window wouldn't go up all the way.removal is easiest with an angle grinderryoken said:ok, not much came up on searches...

on the pwr window reg.(mine were totally shot).the biggest PITA was getting the glass back on the track.but it will bolt up and you won't regret it.good luck and have fun.
