Hi all, 1978 308 GTS I have read a lot of threads but I can't see one describing how to get the glass out of the door. I am rebuilding the motor/cable part (that all comes out fine) but I need to get the glass out to remove the upper left pulley on the RH door. It is up against the glass and I need to replace it. I have tried to remove the right channel that the window slides in but it interferes with the glass too so I can't slide it up and out. Who knows the trick? Thanks for any help, -Rjay
I figured it out finally. I had to drill out a rivet on the top right of the door where the rubber strip was attached. The right side channel then comes out followed by the window. -Rjay
I'm glad you figured it out. I know exactly which roller that you're talking about. I was in my doors last week. Look at the forward most lower roller, I had to get that one out. I didn't remove the left track either but it would have been 1000x easier if I had. The cable had come off of that roller. I sure wish Ferrari had used a simple, "Proven" sizzors type of window regulator instead.(perfected decades earlier)
Steve, You are right, a scissors would probably be quite a bit more reliable. I have to string new cable because the old was beginning to fray. While I'm in there, I pulled the lock for cleaning. I couldn't even see how it worked until I cleaned it. I know all you guys like pics... -Rjay Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Wow- great job cleaning the lock! Now I feel I should have done that, I just lubed everything on mine. Ferrari even makes a door lock look complicated.
