I don't remember if we discussed this but I didn't separate the cables from the levers. I figure we can shoot the shit and OP will make sense of it if he works on his.

One of the things I discovered was the importance of making sure the window contacts both bump stops at the same time when it's closing. This is what keeps the regulator from jamming when it closes the window. I originally adjusted my driver's side because, after sitting for hours, the window would make a loud pop like when a stone hits the windshield.

Here are the before and after clips of my driver's side.
