Inside of the window track on the "outside" or door latch side, there is a
channel with a rubber backed felt liner, this track liner wears out, or
comes loose and can bunch up. You will need to remove the door panel with
the window rolled up to access this area, then you can either glue it down
or straighten it out or whatever.

Subject: getting really hard to roll up windows
Hey all,
pretty much ever since I bought my '83 I've had trouble rolling up the
windows. They have manual cranks. I had this same problem on my '84, so I
assume it's fairly common. I may be wrong but it seems the colder it is,
the harder it is to roll them up. Last winter I snapped a window crank it
was so hard to roll up(and the crank was less than a month old). It seems
the window is off track, the rear goes up faster than the front of the
window(or vise-versa?), and I usually have to crank with one hand and wiggle
the window with the other to get it to go up. How do I fix this? What parts
and tools are required, if it is fixable that is-
Rob
