I was replacing the motor and when I removed the motor from the regulator the tension spring behind the motor came out witch way should it go in? my new motor is loud like its trying to hard to roll up the window... should i get a new motor or did i put the tension spring in wrong?

@Cobramlw I really can't tell but it does sound like you put in the spring wrong. It could also be the joints in your regulator are worn, I always recommend replacing the motor and regulator at the same time.

Thank You, very very very very very very much! I just paid someone to mess this up for me! I will go it alone this time.

This video is extremely helpful. . On our( 97 F150) we have plastic ribets instead of screws on the door panel removel. We had to get some new plastic ribets. In order to remove the plastic insulation you must remove the door handle assembly and peal the backing off carefully. Speaker must be removed. I used 1/4 bolts 3/4 long to reattach the track assembly. Spring must be put on correctly! (See Video). Other than a few minor differences The Video is great ! Thanks "Jack of all trades"

@routerpimp Thank you for checking us out, and also for your purchase. The auto roll down feature is enabled by the switch.

@98offroadFORDexpo I used M6 1.0X12MM and they worked fine. The only thing I did different on the install was install all the bolts with the nut on the outside (not interior to the door.)

This video was extremely helpful and also got me to buy my regulator and motor from 1AAuto :)

One thing that I noticed does not work any more is my 'auto' roll down. Was the 'auto' roll down a function of the original motor or is that a function of the door switch?

Received my replacement parts from 1AA and am about to start the repair. When replacing the rivets with nuts/bolts what size are you using? It's hard to tell from just watching the video.

thanks much my window came off track in my 98 expedition and its too cold here for me to do too much and this helped me to put it back on track

@98offroadFORDexpo I'd use bolts as well.
