Power Window Help - 91 ES

Passenger side. The motor works, I have taken off the panel and from what I can see i looks like a white plastic gear, but it's shaped like a belt or something with teeth on the inside, I found a few pieces of it in the bottom of the door. The window was stuck down in the door, I got it up to about a 1/2 inch from the top and used some strip ties to hold it up for now. It's been this way for about a month and I'm wondering how to fix it, for good.

The way these doors were made make it look impossible to work on...

The door has been hit in the rear and needs some work, so I was thinking it would be easier to get another door and kill two birds with one stone. Thing is they are not very easy to find.

Any Daytona owners here who have worked on their power windows before please let me know, thanks!

yeah the door design makes it hard to work them- but it sounds like the u need the whole window regulator set up -- i would just put a new door in if i was u- it will save alot of cut up knuckles an swearing .... I think i can get u a door in good shape i'll let u know...

Thanks! Where are you? I bet shipping a door isn't cheap, lol.

im in nj - i have located a door -btw

You don't need a whole door or regulator setup. The window motor is fixed in one position, and the movement is controlled by a plastic "Belt". Your window wont close all the way because the belt broke. Remove the inner door panel, and wind the window up as far as it will go - then pull the glass up the rest of the way after it stops. the belt is attached to the bottom of the glass with a bolt -remove it. You should then be able to pull what is left of the belt out from there. Clean & Lube the track the belt rides on (teflon lube or White lithium grease) and feed the new belt on - then use the window crank/motor to pull it on the rest of the way. Replace the bolt. Replace the inner door panel. BTW - new belt comes from Dodge directly.

I'm in NorthWest Florida...

I have a door (from a 90 ES), power windows... no interior panel... the plastic around the outside of the window isnt perfect.. would have to be replaced to look good...

Also has a crease along the side... bondo or bang it out and would be fine...
