My writeup of the window motor conversion on PanteraPlace.com may offer some help:http://panteraplace.com/page164.htm

As Mike said, it takes some finagling to adjust the window to ride up and down smoothly.

   Folks,

   Window rides up fine till 2 inches from top.  starts to bind and motor
   lug.   I understand there are are 2 tracks that guide window edge from
   bottom of door to top of window frame.  I also see the aluminum bar
   with channels on edge in middle of door that has the carriage with
   wheels to pull window up/down from regulator movement.   This carriage
   has 2 bolts on it that seem to a fix wheels. Adjustment screws?    This
   carriage also  has 2 bolts that "squeeze" window to hold window to
   carriage.  My glass seems to need to be move/adjusted  maybe 3/16
   up/left/higher and/or backward toward the door handle edge of door (not
   hinge edge of door so it snugs in closer to felt channel.

   How do I make that adjustment?

   Thank you .  .
