Frank I did a search on the other site and I saw that some were having problems with the window rolling up all the way. Is this still a problem with that kit?
My electric life power windows work fine, but struggle with that last 1/4" when seating the glass against the seals. More gear reduction would help. If I open the door(s), raise the window(s), then close the door, there's no issue whatsoever. It's not really a huge deal, more of an annoyance than anything as I don't really raise and lower the windows while driving except when I was on Power Tour (intermittent rain or toll booth).
Frank's right- all of the aftermarket systems leave a little to be desired. I have Electric Life window motors in my '68 conv't and they work DECENT.
I am running Nu Relics in a few other cars right now.....not really any better. The kits all fit really well and are straight forward to install. The problem is that they lack enough power to thrust past weatherstripping, felts & panels efficiently. Window adjustment is crucial, but even then they're not amazing.
Still, it's cooler to have power windows. It's amazing how well they work with a 19 volt battery during install & testing- looking into a way to amplify the signal!
Come see how they work- either type, if you'd like............
So might I ask if I would be better off to clean up and fix a factory set of power windows I have in the garage? Also how would you go about wiring them in to a AAW HWY 22 fuse box? Sorry to bust into this thread but I was not sure if I should start another post for these 2 ?'s. Thanks guy's
