    Vent windows won't close?????

    I had the windows on my '87 Silverado tinted recently and the vent windows were left open for a couple of days. Now they won't close. I'm afraid to force them for fear of breaking something. Any ideas what the problem might be? I haven't started the truck or operated the power windows since...

    I need these for my 1987 Silverado R10 short bed pickup w/ 5.7 V-8 with factory rally wheels. The original lug nuts are conical and appear to have a washer behind them but I'm not sure. Please let me know where I might get something as close to original as possible. Thanks.
