OK, I can beat the top down with a hammer...

...but before I do I thought I might ask for some help.

Just replaced the passenger side door glass in my '79 SLC. Everything works but at the rear of the window is close to a 1" gap.
So far I have:
1-moved/removed the rear stop-no solution
2-loosened all the bolts and tried pulling the back of the window up-no solution
3-loosened the bolts on the regulator scissors to see if that would change anything-no solution
4-loosened the rear vertical guide to see if that would change anything-no solution.

Anyone have any adjustment tricks?

Just a thought. Did the replacement glass come from a pw vehicle?
I assume the replacement glass was used so the window channel was glued or bolted to the glass. The tract may be different foe power windows vs cranks.
I doubt the year would make a difference, but power vs manual may. My 280 has cranks so the regulator is a different animal than a pw one.
