Vent window adjustment...

Post by 68Slug »

I tried searching but without much luck. Can the vent windows be adjusted? The right side does not close all the way, and I cannot force it closed. Thanks!

To my knowledge there's no adjustment there, and I feel your pain as I too like most of us have the squealing vent window. :lol:
I'd first try to replace the handle assembly on the vent window to see if it might pull the window tighter?
Here's a really good tutorial on the door assembly that shows some real good pictures of the entire assembly.
I thought it might help you:
