    How to send power to window switch for testing?

    Yes I thought about doing this.. might still do it. But can't you run power from the battery to the motor without cutting off the plug? I have that Power Probe thing and it has a prong where you can send power (or ground) to whatever you want. Obviously you gotta be pretty careful when using...

    How to send power to window switch for testing?

    Yeah it's kind of a tough repair because it's inside the freakin' door. And don't drop any screws or anything, might have a hard time getting them back out. Although yours sounds like maybe it's binding up. But your post highlights why I wanted to run power straight to the motor while...

    How to send power to window switch for testing?

    So if I take your meaning, you're saying there's no need for me to run power to anything. Just check those two grounds? Sorry about all the noob questions, I'm something of an electrical newb.

    How to send power to window switch for testing?

    Unfortunately it had no effect. Makes me think I got lucky on the driver's side. Works great after installing a new AC Delco motor and regulator. Looks like I need to feed power to the brown wire, and then the blue wire. Someone said the pink wire also carries power but I think it's just the...

    How to send power to window switch for testing?

    I'm trying to fix my slow passenger side window in my 87 truck. It's slow going up and down, and it needs a person to help it go up. I have already replaced the window motor and the regulator with new AC Delco stuff. So we can rule that out. I need to test and see if it's a poor voltage...

    Can these screws also be used for the vent windows?

    Thanks! But is there any reason the conical washer is needed? Would a regular washer and screw work fine? The truck it's for is an 87 model, if that matters.

    How To Build Custom Door Panels

    Is this man still around? It was almost 10 years ago when this thread was made. I'd like to ask a question... Has anybody done what he did, but made the panels look factory? Basically just cover a panel in factory colored vinyl, and make cut outs for all the trim. And everything else that...

    Can these screws also be used for the vent windows?

    Hi all. I wanted to ask if these are the same size screws that hold in the vent windows. I'm referring to the screws that go in the door, but they're for fastening the vent window to the door: (1973-78) Door Panel Retainer Screws - Chrome Head...

    Besides LMC, is there any other website to order the triangle windows...as a complete assembly?

    I'd go ahead and just rebuild yours. Youtube has some good videos on how to do it. It's not difficult, nor is it difficult to get them out of there. And you'll save a good deal of money. You will of course be ordering some parts, but it will be a lot cheaper than ordering the whole assembly.

    Anybody modify the 4x10 speaker mounts in the back?

    I ended up getting some off amazon. The factory ones seemed difficult for me to alter, they were a bit thick. Does anyone happen to know if modern 6x9's tend to hit the cab? Or does there seem to be enough room back there? Thank you

    Anybody modify the 4x10 speaker mounts in the back?

    I have some of those 4x10" speaker mounts in the back corners of my cab. Not sure if the trucks came with them or not. Anyway they're not even made for a modern 4x10" speaker, because the magnet is too big. So has anyone cut these up and made other speakers fit? I'm trying to see if I can save...
